Comments: | Most recent data available for 2015–16 reporting cycle are for 2014-15. The most recent survey data for this indicator are:
SEW data (non-Indigenous) 2014 The baseline report presented data from the 2008 NATSISS (Indigenous) and 2008 SEW (non-Indigenous) as the supplementary data collection. For people 'with' a non-school qualification:
For people 'working towards' a non-school qualification:
The denominator (total 20–64 year old population) excludes people whose level of non-school qualification or attendance status was not stated. Prior to 2010, the SEW did not include people living in very remote areas. From 2010 onwards, the SEW includes people living in very remote areas excluding discrete Indigenous communities. Prior to 2010, the SEW did not include the remoteness variable. Therefore, a non-Indigenous comparator for remoteness for the 2008 NATSISS is not reported. The size of the standard errors mean that SEW data may not be adequate for measuring change over time. Baseline year for NIRA target (Halve the gap in employment outcomes between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians within a decade) is 2008; baseline year for this measure is 2008; target year is 2018. |
