The first thing to know is that AVETMISS stands for the Australian Vocational Education and Training Management Information Statistical Standard. It is the national data standard that ensures consistent and accurate capture and reporting of Vocational Education and Training (VET) information about students.
The below screen allows you to add/edit the AVETMISS information of a student. Some of the fields are very important in the AVETMISS submissions. For example, if you do not select the survey contact status, you will get errors in NCVER submissions. We will recommend you to enter all the AVETMISS fields to avoid compliance issues.
