Early in 2005, the Ministerial Council on Education, Employment, Training and Youth Affairs (MCEETYA) Taskforce on Transition from School collected data on vocational education and training (VET) in Schools from all States and Territories in the following areas: (1) number of students enrolled in VET in Schools programs; (2) industry coverage by ANTA industry group; (3) annual student contact hours; (4) number of students undertaking structured workplace learning & total hours; and (5) number of students commencing a training agreement as a School-based New Apprentice. All jurisdictions have their own arrangements for collecting data and maintaining databases. Some data reported in this report are derived from collections maintained by Boards of Studies, while other data are derived from school system/authority collections or from state/territory training authorities. This paper presents the following data: (1) In 2004, a total of 211 885 students were enrolled in VET in Schools programs. This represents approximately 49 per cent of all senior secondary students; (2) The most popular industry areas for VET in Schools were Tourism & Hospitality, Business & Clerical, and Computing, which accounted for nearly 48 per cent of all enrolments; (3) 46.19 million hours of training were delivered representing an average of 218 hours per student across Australia. The average varies across States/Territories ranging from 332 to 28 hours per student; (4) 114 865 students spent a total of 6.71 million hours in structured workplace learning, an average of approximately 58 hours per student. The average varies across States/Territories ranging from approximately 11 to 160 hours per student; and (5) 12 998 School-based New Apprenticeships were commenced during 2004. More than 70 per cent of these apprenticeships were in the areas of Sales & Personal Services, Tourism & Hospitality, Business & Clerical, and Automotive. (Contains 31 exhibits.)
