The Survey of Education and Training (SET) is a 4-yearly household survey providing a comprehensive picture of participation, outcomes and access to education and training. Despite some variation in the content of the SET over successive surveys, essentially there are six areas which comprise the core content of the survey. These are:

  • Participation in education - current and previous study
  • Educational attainment - highest year of school completed and level and field of up to four non-school qualifications (most recent and three highest)
  • Work-related training - with information on completion of up to four training courses
  • Access to education and training - unmet demand and barriers to study and work-related training
  • General and labour force information - including demographics, current employment details, employment history (last 12 months), Indigenous, migrant and disability status, and the characteristics of education or training providers.
