This report explored the various aspects of course completion and non-completion. It identified instances where program non-completions can be considered as successful student outcomes, possibly reflecting diverse student intentions.
This document provides technical detail and supporting data for the research findings discussed in ‘The student journey in VET: the many faces of completion and non-completion’.
This technical paper summarises exploratory analysis undertaken to evaluate the effectiveness of using machine learning approaches to calculate projected completion rates for VET programs and compares with the current Markov chains methodology used by NCVER.
This technical report provides an evaluation of three alternative methodological approaches for calculating completion rate projections for apprentices and trainees.
This report presents data trends in apprentice and trainee training activity in 2020 as compared with 2019, to provide insights into the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The analysis focuses on monthly counts of contract commencements, suspensions, cancellations and withdrawals, and completions.
