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 publication provides financial data for vocational education and training (VET) in Australia. It includes information on revenues and expenses, assets and liabilities, and cash flows for the 2000 calendar year. Comparisons with 1999 data have been made where possible. Figures are given for the whole of Australia, the individual States and Territories, and for the Australian National Training Authority (ANTA). This financial information is a primary source about how VET in Australia is financed and where the money is spent. The information presented has been extracted from the accrual-based statements prepared by the States, Territories and ANTA on their VET activity.

This publication provides a snapshot of apprenticeships and traineeships across Australia. It presents statistics on commencements, completions, cancellations and withdrawals and those currently in training. Unless stated otherwise, data are derived from the latest National Apprentice and Trainee Collection (no. 113, September 2022 estimates), which is compiled under the Australian Vocational Education and Training Management Information Statistical Standard (AVETMISS) for Apprentice and Trainee Collection Specifications, Release 7.0, October 2015.

Due to the delay in time between an event (commencement, completion, etc.) occurring and the reporting of that event to the National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER), NCVER estimates the most recent figures. The estimation method involves weighting recently processed numbers based on average reporting lags. As estimates are revised for up to seven quarters, figures for the last two years may differ from those published in earlier or in subsequent reports. The final counts are those submitted by jurisdictions. Further details on the methodology can be found in the 'Estimation of apprentice and trainee statistics' technical paper [available in VOCEDplus at TD/TNC 100.15].

Notes: (1) The [Coronavirus Disease 2019] COVID-19 pandemic in Australia has created uncertain times for individuals, business and governments, which have affected apprentice and trainee numbers. Care should be taken when comparing 2020 to 2022 data with data from previous years; and (2) In-training figures represent the number of apprenticeship and traineeship training contracts where the apprentice or trainee is actively training under the terms of their contract, and who have not completed, cancelled or withdrawn from their training, or had their training contract expired without meeting all of the prescribed requirements of their program. The figure reflects the number of active contracts at a given point in time (at the end of the quarter), and therefore in-training figures cannot be cumulated over time. For this reason, quarterly comparisons are equivalent to 12-months ending comparisons, as they both represent the changes as at 30 June from one year to the next.

In Australia, there were 415,240 apprentices and trainees in-training as at 30 June 2022, an increase of 21.6 per cent from 30 June 2021. In the June quarter 2022, compared with the June quarter 2021: commencements increased by 36.5 per cent, to 66,885; completions increased by 16.6 per cent, to 20,750; and cancellations and withdrawals increased by 24.1 per cent, to 32,015. In the 12 months ending 30 June 2022, compared with the 12 months ending 30 June 2021: commencements increased by 22.1 per cent, to 264,320; completions increased by 15.3 per cent, to 88,855; and cancellations and withdrawals increased by 39.6 per cent, to 119,805.

This publication presents preliminary figures for the number of students, subject enrolments, hours of delivery, full-year training equivalents and qualifications relating to Australia’s public vocational education and training (VET) system for 2011. As the figures are preliminary, they may be subject to change as further processing of the data is undertaken. Final data, with more detail and a wider range of variables, are expected to be released in early July 2012. Highlights include: there were 1.9 million students enrolled in the public VET system in 2011, an increase of 4.6 per cent since 2010; student numbers increased in all states and territories except Tasmania in 2011 with the largest increases in Victoria (14.8 per cent), Northern Territory (1.5 per cent) and Western Australia (1.1 per cent); in numerical terms, the greatest increases in student numbers occurred in Victoria (77,000 additional students), New South Wales (3500 additional students) and Queensland (additional 2800 students); nationally, there was an 8.6 per cent increase for both hours of delivery and full-year training equivalents in 2011; students undertaking Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) qualifications increased by 9.2 per cent nationally in 2011; in numerical terms, increases were greatest in certificate III (54,900 additional students), certificate IV (51,900 additional students) and diploma qualifications (28,400 additional students).

The purpose of this report is to provide information on trends over the years 1995 to 1998 in the realm of contracts of training in vocational education and training in the trade industries (electrical, building and construction, automotive manufacturing/retailing, manufacturing, hospitality, and retailing) in Australia. Preliminary indicative data are also provided for 1999. The report focuses on providing more detailed information on such factors as trends in numbers in training, and commencements and completions, in the context of relevant economic and labour market information for each of the specified trade industry areas.

There are three companion publications: Australian apprentice and trainee statistics: electrical and electronics trades 1995 to 1999 (TD/TNC 61.20); Australian apprentice and trainee statistics: mechanical engineering and fabrication trades 1995 to 1999 (TD/TNC 61.21); and Australian apprentice and trainee statistics: automotive repairs and service trades 1995 to 1999 (TD/TNC 61.22).
