Notes:
(1) All items exclude employer-sponsored trainees. All apprentices are regarded as employer-sponsored.
(2) Placement includes progression.
(3) Data is, in some cases, slightly different from other FÁS statistics because of different compilation methods.
(4) Long-term unemployed (LTU) includes all persons who were unemployed for over 12 months, whether on Live Register or not.
(5) Early school leavers are aged under 21 with below Leaving Certificate qualifications (under 19 prior to 2001).
(6) The percentages Live Register, Long- Term Unemployed, Women and Early School Leavers are the percentages these clients made up of all New Starts
during the year. The percentages Placed and Certified are based on the percentages of persons completing FÁS programmes during the year.
(7) Placement information is not available from FÁS management information system in respect of employment programmes.
Information is however available from Follow-Up Surveys.
(8) Information on training programmes for persons with a disability (Special Needs) was included for the first time in 2001 following transfer of responsibility
to FÁS for these programmes. Total training data for 2000 is not comparable with later data for total training.
