This first reporting of total VET activity has enriched our current knowledge of the VET market and begins to tell the story of Australia’s training market through preliminary analysis and comparisons of government-funded training providers, and private training providers.
This statistical compendium examines, firstly, vocational education and training (VET) students with a disability as a whole group, focusing on their participation levels, achievements and outcomes from VET, and identifies gaps and/or issues with the existing data. This is followed by a section dealing with people with different types of disabilities and a conclusion. The appendix contains detailed profiles, which can stand alone as fact sheets, for each disability type: physical disability, medical condition, vision disability, learning disability, hearing disability, intellectual disability, mental illness, acquired brain impairment, and other/unspecified disabilities. Also included is a profile on Indigenous people with a disability.
