Tom Blenkinsop – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills
The below Parliamentary question was asked by Tom Blenkinsop on 2016-06-09.
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, what proportion of apprentices in the Tees Valley area (a) went on to work full-time with the employer with which they trained and (b) were subsequently unemployed in the last year for which figures are available.
Nick Boles
Statistical data broken down by region on (a) apprentices working full-time for the employer with which they trained or (b) were subsequently unemployed, is not available.
Latest Apprenticeship Evaluation Learner Survey 2016 data show that 9 out of 10 of all recent apprenticeship completers were in employment 12-20 months after completion. And 72% of those in employment were with the same employer with whom they completed their apprenticeship.
Information on Apprenticeship starts by region and local authority is published as a supplementary table (first link) to a Statistical First Release (second link).
