This publication contains a summary of statistics on persons undertaking vocational training through contracts of training arrangements (apprenticeships and traineeships) for the quarter ending 30 June 2005. It looks at the estimates of apprentices and trainees who were training as at 30 June 2005 and at longer term trends for in-training figures. The profile of the apprentice and trainee population has changed significantly in the 12 months to 30 June 2005 and commencement numbers provide the best guide for the direction of change in the apprentice and trainee population. Newly commencing apprentices and trainees were predominantly aged 19 and under, and male. There was considerable variation in growth in commencements with increases in commencements of persons aged 45 and over and of males. As well, there were commencement increases in the Northern Territory, Western Australia, South Australia, Queensland, Victoria and New South Wales with decreases in commencements in the Australian Capital Territory and Tasmania.
The figures used in this publication are estimated figures calculated by the National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER) based on the reported data for the June quarter 2005. Show less

This report provides an overview of the entire Australian workforce based on the methodology used in the American study titled 'Education for what? the new office economy' by Anthony P. Carnevale and Stephen J Rose (an executive summary of this study may be found at TD/INT 54.13). Data from five Australian censuses (1976, 1981, 1986, 1991, and 1996) have been analysed to provide a time series profile of the Australian workforce, focusing on types of functions instead of just where people work or what occupation they have. The project report reveals relationships between what people do, how much they earn, and how educated they are.
Section 1 details the rationale behind the functional approach taken to analyse economic activities and the workforce. An overview is provided of the trends on the total workforce for the past twenty years, and presents findings on employment share, and the education and earnings of workers in the various function groups.
Section 2 explains the job level analysis (elite, good, and less-skilled) in greater detail and presents findings on employment share, education and earnings in terms of these categories.
A booklet containing highlights of this report may be found indexed at TD/ANTA 59.01. Show less
