LABOUR SUPPLY The labour market can be viewed in terms of supply and demand factors. By examining these factors it is possible to identify where a region might be vulnerable to change, or where it may have opportunities for development. The supply of labour can be profiled using information on the availabilities of both skills and jobseekers in the region. The following discussion focuses on: Supply: School Education Supply: Vocational Education and Training Supply: Apprenticeships and Traineeships Supply: Jobseekers Supply: Disability Support Pension Recipients. 7.1. Supply: School Education9 In 2007, the Darwin region had 76% of all NT Year 12 students - 1 188 out of a total of 1 565. The number of students in the region studying Year 12 varies from year to year, but the general trend is upwards. Just over 15% of the Year 12 students in the region were Indigenous, which compares well to the overall Indigenous population in the region (14%). Not all students who are enrolled in Year 12 are eligible to attain the Northern Territory Certificate of Education (NTCE) in that year. In 2007 there were 837 eligible students in the Darwin region achieving a pass rate of 89% and producing 742 graduates. 9 Special Data Request, Department of Education and Training, March 2008 99 DEPARTMENT OF BUSINESS AND EMPLOYMENT
