Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, what proportion of people who completed apprenticeships went on to get (a) full-time and (b) part-time employment in the latest period for which figures are available.

Information on the employment destinations for apprentices is collected in the Apprenticeship Evaluation Learner Survey 2012-13:

Of those apprentices who completed their apprenticeships between 1 and 2 years ago 81% are in full or part-time employment. Of these, 81% are in full-time employment and 16% part-time employment. The hours of the remainder varied too much to make a distinction[1].
