The following table shows the number of vocational training opportunities scheme, VTOS, places allocated to each VEC over the years 2002-5, and the number of places filled at October of each year. The number of places filled by each VEC may vary, to some degree, from month to month. They may decrease, for example, as students leave a course during the academic year, or may increase, as some VECs try to fill places throughout the year.
