The Australian vocational education and training (VET) system provides training across a wide range of subject areas and is delivered through a variety of training institutions and enterprises (including to apprentices and trainees). The system provides training for students of all ages and backgrounds. Students may study individual subjects or full programs that lead to formal program completions. This publication estimates the completion rates of government-funded VET programs in Australia (broadly defined as all Commonwealth and state/territory government-funded programs [either Commonwealth or state recurrent funding, Commonwealth specific purpose funding or state specific funding]), in order to fill a gap in performance measures for the VET sector. Program completion rates are contrasted with subject load pass rates, which express the weighted percentage of successfully completed subjects, in each table of this publication. Completion rates in this publication have been derived using an improved methodology, from previously published reports.
