NCVER and ASQA collaborate on COVID-19 research
NCVER is partnering with the Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA) on research investigating The increasing role of online delivery during COVID-19.
This research is exploring the shift to online delivery that occurred among many VET providers in response to lockdown measures and strict social distancing requirements during the pandemic using NCVER data.
To inform this analysis, and ASQA's Strategic review of online learning in the VET sector, NCVER and ASQA are conducting an online survey to gain insights from VET providers on how they navigated the transition to online learning during the pandemic and their experiences doing so. Keep an eye out for the survey’s key findings, which will be published later this year.
For more information about this work and other NCVER research underway, please visit Current research.
