Apprenticeship training: supply and demand<br />
Public Employment<br />
Service: number of<br />
apprenticeship seekers<br />
exceeds the number of<br />
registered places for<br />
apprentices – but not<br />
all vacancies can be<br />
filled<br />
The number of (immediately available) apprenticeship<br />
seekers registered with the Public Employment Service<br />
totalled 5,500 in 2011. The annual average number of<br />
(immediately available) openings for apprentices amounted<br />
to 3,650. Although the number of apprenticeship seekers<br />
exceeds the number of apprenticeship places, it is impossible<br />
to fill all vacancies. No less than1,600 positions for<br />
apprentices were vacant in »accommodation/food service<br />
activities« but only an average about 400 apprenticeship<br />
seekers were interested in training in this economic sector.<br />
Outlook for 2012–2016<br />
Overall number of<br />
apprenticeships is<br />
expected to decrease<br />
Sharp decline in the<br />
number of young<br />
people / enterprises<br />
reduce apprenticeship<br />
training activities<br />
Growing demand for<br />
skilled labour<br />
Vacancies for<br />
apprentices are<br />
registered more<br />
frequently with Public<br />
Employment Service…<br />
... The involvement of<br />
the Public Employment<br />
Service will grow<br />
considerably<br />
In the next years the number of (standard) jobs will increase<br />
by +106,500. The overall number of apprenticeships will,<br />
however, decrease by –6,970. New apprenticeships started<br />
will shrink by –1,870 in the period until 2016.<br />
This development is due to the fact that<br />
• the number of persons aged 15-19 living in Austria will<br />
decline sharply annually (–9.2%), and that<br />
• the share of enterprises active in apprenticeship<br />
training will continue to decrease.<br />
The decline in apprenticeship training activities of enterprises<br />
may not be explained by a decreasing demand for personnel<br />
having acquired special skills. On the contrary, the demand<br />
for skilled workers will grow sizeably (by about 3% to<br />
836,290).<br />
The search for apprentices will become more complex for<br />
enterprises (continuing to be) active in the dual vocational<br />
training system. They will therefore notify the Public<br />
Employment Service more frequently of openings for<br />
apprenticeship seekers.<br />
The involvement of the Public Employment Service (ratio of<br />
incoming vacancies to new apprenticeships started) will<br />
increase significantly (from 61.3% in 2011 to 71.6% in<br />
2016).
