This report presents results of a project to produce a set of strategies to ensure the compatibility of Australian state and territory information systems with the requirements of the National Management Information and Statistics System (NATMISS) and the Australian Vocational Education and Training Management Information Statistical Standard (AVETMISS). Section 2 describes project methodology. Section 3 on State and Territory Training Authority (STA) statistical systems describes their functions, STA computer systems and specifications, current and planned development work, and links with Technical and Further Education (TAFE). Section 4 focuses on the relationship between STA statistical systems and AVETMISS. It considers the impact of AVETMISS on the data level, mode of data dissemination, data quality, and national classifications; it also discusses development of the contract of training portion of the NATMISS Business Model and compares the existing data elements in the STA statistical systems with the AVETMISS attributes relevant to the contract of training area. Subsections provide comparative analyses of the AVETMISS with the data elements contained in the statistical systems in each state and territory. Section 5 presents National Classifications for the Contract of Training area in terms of two attributes: contract status and employer type. Section 6 focuses on differences in the statistical reporting by the STAs. Section 7 identifies issues in terms of gathering information for a national collection from organizations outside of the TAFE sector. Appended are sections on project brief, award category, contract type, and contract status reason. (YLB)
