In 2008, the Manufacturing Industry Skills Advisory Council SA (MISAC) commissioned research involving almost 300 apprentices in the South Australian manufacturing industry. The research was charged with identifying barriers and incentives related to apprenticeship participation, with a focus on current perceptions about training and a goal of identifying program improvements which could increase apprenticeship commencements and completions. The primary research was conducted by Colmar Brunton Intelligence, culminating in a report submitted to MISAC in March 2009. This current document summarises the findings of that primary research report, in order to facilitate a broader distribution to stakeholders.
