National Skills Conference Presentation

23-24 March 2017Pathways of TVET College learners through TVET CollegesHSRC/DHET LMIP 5Prof J Papier, S Needham and T McBrideUWC IPSS

Slide2

Research StudyThe research study was commissioned by the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC) and DHET

The study is located within Theme 5 of the HSRC Labour Market Intelligence Partnership (LMIP) that has multi-cohort panel studies with a focus on:Access to post-school training and educationPathways or trajectories from school and through the post-school sector Transitions from and through education and training into the labour market

Slide3

Research Questions

Who accesses and progresses through the NATED qualification route?What are the destinations of NATED graduates at key exit points?What has been the take-up of NATED college graduates within industry?

Slide4

Targeted RespondentsPublic TVET College NATED N3 and NATED N6 Engineering Studies graduates in 2013

NATED N6 Business Studies from 2013 21 000 records obtained from DHET for 50 TVET Colleges20 % sample achieved with 4 050 respondents

Slide5

Methodological Findings

Use of a commercial call centre together with academic inputs enables large scale longitudinal researchThe lack of accurate data continues to be a problem within the TVET post-school sectorData had to extensively cleaned and duplicates removed, which takes significant time College graduates are difficult to track after graduation as contact details change frequently ( 58 % of sample uncontactable).Paucity of research on the TVET sector does not allow for benchmarking/comparison over time

Slide6

Research findings

Weighted respondents– by race

Slide7

Research findings

Profile of respondents (2013)

Slide8

Research findings

Weighted respondents – by age

Slide9

Research findings Graduates received support from colleges (45 % practical training, 42 % career guidance, 37% workplace exposure). However experiences were uneven and the base line study could not investigate in depth

17 % of graduates were continuing studies: 45 % of which were undertaking university qualifications and 24 % enrolled in a learnership.Approx 80% of graduates studied in their home towns. For those who migrated, 73 % did so for better job opportunities. Throughput rates for N1-N3 are just over 50% and 45 % for N4-N6

Slide10

Research findings

Respondents by reason for enrolling at the college

Slide11

Research findings

Weighted respondents – by qualification at enrolment

Slide12

Research findings : Employment52 % of all NATED graduates from the 2013 sample were employed in 2016

Male graduates have slightly higher employment rates. Highest employment rates were from N. Cape (75 % but very low numbers), NW (59.7 %), WC (59.2) and Gauteng (56.9)Prior Matric qualifications improves employment ratesCourse of NATED study affects employment. Manufacturing (100%), Civil Engineering (42%). Public Management (62 %), Public Relations (40%)26.5 % of employed graduates are permanently employed and 23.7% in long term contracts.

Slide13

Research findings 2

Employment rates by gender

Slide14

Research findings 3Young graduates have lower levels of permanent employment long term contracts and more women are in short term contracts/internships

63% of employed graduates earn above R 3 000/pm. 20 % earned between R 5-10 000 and 14.6 % earned more than R 10 000 pm. Women earn less than men. Engineering Studies has higher earning jobs than Business Studies. Only 6 % of graduates were self-employed. Over 90 % of unemployed graduates were actively seeking a job even though 29 % had been unemployed for a year.

Research Findings 3

Employment by Employment Contract Type

Slide17

Policy implications DHET databases should have unitised records for appropriately disaggregated information

Critical need to establish ongoing longitudinal studies as opposed to disparate baseline studies that do not enable comparisonsA national EMIS for the post-school sector that is accessible to researchersSpecialised survey providers enable capacity for DHET to engage in longitudinal large scale qualitative and quantitative research
