VET students predominantly study part-time, which can extend their training time further.  \nCompletion rates are presented as either observed or projected:  \n Observed rates are presented four years after the commencement year and can be used tocompare performance between commencing cohorts. This timeframe is accepted as a goodbalance between timeliness and the stability of the rates.  \n Projected rates are generated for commencing years where enough time has passed toassume unsuccessful outcomes, but enough records remain outstanding that they impactthe comparability of the rate. These rates are comprised of observed ‘to date’ completionsand a projected ‘top up’ component.  \nThe proportion completed as at the latest submission, i.e. as at 31 December 2024, referred to as ‘to date’ are also presented, but cannot be compared across years, as those in earlier years have had more time to complete.  \nA range of  factors influence the likelihood of completing a VET qualification \u003C[https://www.ncver.edu.au/research](https://www.ncver.edu.au/research)and-statistics/infographics/what-factors-explain-the-likelihood-of-completing-a-vet-qualification> 1.
