Apprenticeship Retention
The Apprenticeship Retention report shows three different retention rates for apprentices. Each figure can be drilled down to show a list of the relevant learners.
The report can be found in the Quality folder of the Reports Library.

Details
The data in the report is all taken from the programme aim, using the following measures:
| Measure | Criteria | 
|---|---|
| Starts | Start date is in the selected year | 
| Continuing | Actual end date is null and the completion status is 1 or null (note that all learners must also be active during the selected year, so a continuing learner is unlikely to appear in the results for 5 years ago, whereas it is possible they may appear in the previous year) | 
| Total leavers | Actual end date is in the selected year and completion status is 2, 3 or 6 | 
| Withdrawals | Actual end date is in the selected year and completion status is 3 | 
| Planned breaks | Actual end date is in the selected year and completion status is 6 | 
| Completions | Actual end date is in the selected year and completion status is 2 | 
| QAR overall cohort | Uses derived QAR data, where the overall cohort matches the selected year | 
| QAR overall completers | Uses derived QAR data, where the overall cohort matches the selected year and the completion status used for the QAR (TRAINEEPPR.COMPSTATUSED) is 2 | 
The rates are calculated as follows:
- 
                    
Basic retention rate - completions / (total leavers + continuing)
 - 
                    
In-year retention rate - (completions + continuing) / (total leavers + continuing)
 - 
                    
QAR retention rate - QAR overall completers / QAR overall cohort
