New Reporting Provides Deeper Insights into VET Student and Working Life Feedback

Education and qualifications Vocational education and training Quality and development

The Finnish National Agency for Education (EDUFI) has published a new reporting model on its website for the qualitative analysis of national student and working life feedback in vocational education and training (VET). At the same time, the first qualitative analysis of the feedback data has been carried out.

The publication model helps identify relationships between factors that influence the quality of education and reveals emerging trends in the feedback. The analysis is based on selected thematic areas, supporting the development of quality management. The qualitative analysis complements the quantitative statistical data that are openly published through the Vipunen statistical service.

The publication model and the first results are available on the EDUFI´s website as Power BI reports in Finnish, Swedish and English.

Depending on the report, the data can be examined by field of education, qualification, age group, region and statistical year. Analyses are based on three years of trend data and will be supplemented as new data collection rounds are completed.

Reporting is developed based on identified needs.The publication model has been technically designed to allow flexible updating of the latest data and the addition of new thematic areas.
