The Department for the Economy published statistical reports on Higher Level Apprenticeships in Higher Education and overall apprenticeships in Northern Ireland for the academic year 2023/24.

The report on Higher Level Apprenticeships covers students enrolled at Northern Ireland higher education institutions. It includes data on new starts, total participation, and qualifications achieved.

A separate report details the total number of apprenticeships across Northern Ireland in 2023/24. This combines figures from ApprenticeshipsNI and Higher Level Apprenticeships in further and higher education.

Both full publications with tables and documents are available on the Department for the Economy website.
