Report released on apprentice completions

The Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry has released a research report on retaining apprentices.

The key findings of A Systematic Approach to Retaining Apprentices are structured around the following core concepts for retention as identified in the research:

  • attracting the right person
  • recruiting and inducting good apprentices
  • making work and training meaningful
  • providing personal and professional support
  • providing effective training
  • making full use of information and support services.

The report focuses on employer perspectives to determine views, actions, and attitudes that have a positive impact on completion rates of apprenticeships.

 

The report provides employers with recommended principles to follow and processes to implement as part of a holistic workplace management strategy through the recruitment and employment of an apprentice.
