STEM apprenticeships – trend analysis

The local Black Country and wider West Midlands economy relies on a workforce with high level skills including in STEM subjects (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics). The charts above show the percentage of apprenticeship standards completed by apprentices in STEM related subjects. 58% off all college-based apprentices followed STEM programmes of study. We are committed to continuing to grow college-delivered and high-value partnership STEM apprenticeship provision, enhanced by the introduction of the Institute of Technology.
