ABSTRACT This paper explores the results that arise from asking different, cross-disciplinary questions of vocational education and training data. Commencement and completion results from the Australian National Apprentice and Trainee Collection from a two decade-long period of time were geographically categorised into the tropical north and temperate south. Statistical analyses identified a clear difference between the two regions in the timing of cancellations and withdrawals from training contracts in the trade occupations as well as an unexpectedly strong distinction in the annual pattern of non-trade commencements in training. Regionally-specific climate variables are briefly examined to determine if there is prima facie support for a climatic explanation for the commencement of non-trade traineeships. Exploration of the data set suggests that the seasonal motivation to commence formal study in the non-trade occupations may come from sources outside the national training system and have implications for policy-making.

对VET数据的切片方式有所不同:热带季节和基于证据的开始和结束政策

摘要本文探讨了因提出不同的,跨学科的职业教育和培训数据问题而产生的结果。来自澳大利亚国家学徒和见习生集合的长达20年时间的启动和完成结果在地理上分为热带北部和温带南部。统计分析确定了两个区域之间在贸易职业中取消和退出培训合同的时间上存在明显差异,并且在培训方面的非贸易开始年度模式方面出乎意料地有明显区别。简要检查了特定于区域的气候变量,以确定是否有表面证据支持非贸易培训生开始的气候解释。
