Abstract: This publication provides a summary of data relating to Australia's government-funded vocational education and training (VET) system. Government-funded VET is defined as all Commonwealth and state or territory government-funded training delivered by technical and further education (TAFE) institutes, other government providers (such as universities), private providers and community education providers. Data for the Government-funded students and courses series are received in four cumulative submissions across the calendar year. This report covers the period of 1 January to 30 September 2025. There were 1,027,380 students undertaking government-funded training in Australia in the period January to September 2025. This represents a decrease of 72,225 (6.6%) from the same period in 2024. Student numbers in all states and territories decreased except South Australia (up 2,615 (4.0%) to 67,915), and Western Australia, (up 1,875 (1.6%) to 118,190).
