Modern Apprenticeships and National Traineeships: Skills, Utilisation and Progression
This is the report of a study to explore outcomes and progression from Modern Apprenticeships and National Traineeships. The main aims were to gain a better understanding about: the range of possibilities open to young people after they have completed an MA or NTr; the skills that employers want from their young apprentices and how they utilise those skills; the extent to which there is an inter-relationship between the work-based route and possible progression to higher qualifications and/or higher education; and existing good practice which has wider application and could be replicated across industries or organisations.
