In terms of people emigrating after completing apprenticeships, most nurses, teachers or whatever go abroad for one, five or whatever number of years for work experience.

Are there many in this cohort who emigrate after doing their apprenticeship and what is the reason for that? Chefs are sought all over the world. There is a scarcity of them here and the Restaurants Association of Ireland has said so almost on a daily basis. Have many of this cohort of students emigrated afterwards?
