Long-term apprenticeship model appraisal
Now available the report commissioned by the English Department for Education
Fondazione Giacomo Brodolini and Cambridge Econometrix have been commissioned by the English Department for Education to undertake a review of the Long-term Apprenticeship Model to consider if it is fit for purpose and whether other approaches might improve its quality and capability. This review includes:
1. Evaluation of the model design with respect to:
- the data sources available to the DfE with information relevant to predicting future apprenticeships starts and costs at both levy and non-levy-paying employers;
- the other modelling approaches available to forecast future starts and costs;
- the other economic and statistical modelling techniques that could be employed to make best use of the data sources and other information available.
2. Advise on how any alternative or additional approaches could be implemented that would enhance the model, with an estimate/understanding of the benefits they would have on the starts and costs projections.
The report was drafted by Michael Lee, Ha Bui, Anthony Barker – Cambridge Econometrics Terence Hogarth – Fondazione Giacomo Brodolini
