Total VET Activity
All RTOs must collect a range of data from their students and report all their delivery activity (known as Total VET activity) to the National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER) at least annually.
This includes full Australian Vocational Education and Training Management Information Statistical Standard (AVETMISS) data, as per the National VET Data Policy.
Step to Generate National AVETMISS Files
- Go to Reports → RTO Compliance.
- Select the reporting 'YEAR' from the dropdown list.
- Scroll down the page and click on the 'Validate' button. After the files have been successfully validated and any potential errors have been corrected, a success message will appear below.
- After finishing the validation process, click the 'Generate' button.
- You'll see the message "Data file build in progress. Please wait a moment." It's crucial not to leave this window while the process is underway. If you need to continue working, we suggest opening a new tab and keeping this one running in the background.
- After completion, the file will appear in the 'Recently Generated NAT File Sets' table located at the bottom of the same page.
Common Mistakes
With the start of a new year, the default setting will update to the current year. Remember, AVETMISS reporting covers the previous calendar year, so make sure to select the appropriate year.
Common Questions
For Mac users, it's recommended to download and use Firefox to generate AVETMISS reports due to a specific issue with the Apple Mac operating system. When using Safari or Google Chrome, there's a glitch where reports default to the current year, despite selecting a different year from the dropdown menu. For example, even if you choose 2020 as your report year, the report will generate for 2022.
