VET graduate outcomes at the click of a button

Information on employment outcomes for VET graduates can now be accessed through NCVER’s new interactive resource, VET graduate outcomes, salaries and jobs.

Using data from NCVER’s annual Student Outcomes Survey, this tool can assist career counsellors and parents to help young people decide their future training options.

Tom Karmel, NCVER’s Managing Director, says the online resource shows how VET graduates fared after completing their training.

“VET graduate outcomes, salaries and jobs works by providing detailed information on employment outcomes, jobs and average salaries for a particular field of education and qualification,” he says.

“For example, a student graduating from Certificate III or IV in Management and Commerce can expect to be earning an average of $40 800.”

VET graduate outcomes, salaries and jobs provides information on the following for various fields of education and qualifications:

• the top three occupations and industries
• the proportion of students that go on to further study
• employment rates
• average salaries.
