Details

This research looks at the background of adults (aged 19 plus) who decided to undertake apprenticeships. It covers how far investment in apprenticeships has been directed towards upskilling individuals with lower skill levels.

The research looked specifically at the highest prior qualifications of adults who were undertaking apprenticeships, advanced apprenticeships and higher apprenticeships in November 2013.

The survey was conducted between June to July 2015, and involved interviews with 3,500 learners.
