The Public Accounts Committee has launched an inquiry into the value derived from apprenticeships.
The inquiry follows a report from the National Audit Office that claimed that the Department for Education has not set out how it will use the increase in apprenticeship numbers to deliver improvement in productivity.
The inquiry will examine what success in the reform of apprenticeships will look like and how the DfE should maximise the benefits across all apprenticeship programmes, in order to make the best use of public funding.
The deadline for written evidence is 4 October 2016
