<p>There are currently no plans to reintroduce the Young Apprenticeships programme.</p><p>However,
high-quality apprenticeships are available to people of all ages. Our reforms are
improving apprenticeships by making them longer with more off-the job training and
formal assessment at the end.</p><p>An apprenticeship provides the foundation for
a successful career and is a great option for young people who are strong academically
but want on-the-job experience and a high-quality alternative to full-time university
study.</p><p>Traineeships are available to provide quality training to those young
people who need to develop their skills and experience in order to enter the labour
market. The department’s recent Traineeship Impact Evaluation Report shows that 75%
of trainees are in apprenticeships, other jobs, or further learning a year after their
traineeship.</p><p> </p>
