This report uses an integrated dataset to investigate the post-school employment and training destinations of secondary school students who undertook VET for secondary school students (VET in schools) programs in 2011.
This study compares the completion rates of apprentices and trainees employed with group training organisations versus those employed with direct employers.
While statistical analysis cannot confirm a connection between course duration and subject pass rates, it has been identified as a key facilitating factor in consultation with providers, regulators and industry peak bodies.
This research builds on previous NCVER work to better understand the value that small VET providers contribute to the Australian VET system.
This report explores whether VET undertaken by secondary students equips them with the technical and non-technical skills required to successfully participate in an ever-changing world of work.
New research shows that five years after participating in VET in Schools, 87% of students were working, studying or both.
Nationally recognised vocational education and training (VET) in Australia predominantly consists of enrolments in training package qualifications or skill sets. This report examines the pattern of enrolments in training package qualifications to explore the uptake and utility of these qualifications.
Increasing competition in the vocational education and training sector over the last two decades means it is timely to understand how the market structure has changed.
