(1) The Department has not recommended changes yet but is currently considering more flexible apprenticeship delivery options to complement traditional apprenticeship training. To this end, the Department is considering conducting a pilot program to determine the best method of building flexibility into apprenticeship training. The State Training Board and Training Councils are also considering more flexible delivery options for apprenticeship training.
(2) More institutionally based delivery would allow people the option of training when employers reduce their employment of apprentices.
(3) Yes, see (1) above.
(4) There is no result as is still under consideration.
(5) Not applicable.
