Apprentice data are always of interest, though!<\/p>\n
Completion rates for those commencing in 2016 are down from the 2015 level, a bit, but are still around the 56% mark. If they have more than one training contract, however, the rate drops to around 48%.<\/p>\n
Taking a look at\u00a0the site where these data are reported<\/a>\u00a0we can see how occupational areas differ. The highest individual completion rates for those who commenced a trade in 2016 are around 64% for Engineering, ICT and Science Technicians and 62.0% of Automotive and Engineering Trades Workers. Lowest rates reported are for food trades workers at around 43%.<\/p>\n For those in non-trade areas, the highest individual completion rates were seen amongst Sales Workers (around 62%) and Professionals (about 60%). Lower rates were seen from those who are machine operators or drivers (56%), or labourers (about 53%).<\/p>\n As we noted above the overall completion rate is of the order of 48% (based on 2016 figures). However, contract completions are higher for those in non-trade occupations (54-55%) than for the trades (around 43 to 45%). In fact, and as you can see, they are around 10 percentage points higher in both 2015 and 2016.<\/p>\n The quick answer is that the rate is quite high and cancellation is often in the early stages. The report shows that, overall, 47% of those commencing in 2016 were cancelled or withdrawn and that around 33% of apprentice and trainee contracts that commenced in 2015 were cancelled\/withdrawn within the first year. The issue is complicated because even although a contract is cancelled, another might be taken up, and delays between all these processes can mean that completion rates are compromised.<\/p>\n You can look at individual state and territory data\u00a0here<\/a>.
