  The National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER) collects data on commencements and completions in vocational education qualifications via two instruments – the National Apprentice and trainee collection and the National VET provider collection. The National Apprentice and trainee collection includes data for all formally notified apprentices and trainees attending either publicly funded or private registered training organisations (RTOs). The National VET provider collection only contains data from publicly funded institutions such as Technical and Further Education (TAFE) colleges. Data is collected for the apprentice and trainee collection quarterly and for the VET provider collection annually. There were no traineeships or apprenticeships commenced or completed in 2009 in the Australian Capital Territory 8 . During 2009, in Australian Capital Territory there were no commencements or completions in a PMC qualification at a publicly funded training provider. 9 . There is no minimum qualification level for work within this sector. In Australian Capital Territory in 2009, there were no commencements of contracts or enrolments at publicly funded institutions at Certificate IV level or higher 10 . Please note: Due to the way data is collected, the two sets of data are not mutually exclusive.
