This document details the approach for the 2013 Survey of Employer Use and Views of the VET System, which has been in its current form since 2005. In 2011, NCVER sought feedback from users on the future content and methodology of the survey. This feedback was consolidated and an approach proposed that received strong support from users. Following development and testing, the content and methodology has now been finalised for the 2013 survey.
