Apprenticeships are paid jobs with high quality training. We are committed to 3 million apprenticeship starts during the next 5 years and are working with a range of organisations, including employers and training providers, to secure more apprenticeship opportunities across all sectors and for all ages.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government\u2019s 2014 survey of apprentices showed that around 90% of apprentices are employed on completion of training (including 2% who were self-employed). 71% are with the same employer.<\/p>
