Student Experience Survey (SES)

The Student Experience Survey (SES) collects data on key aspects of the higher education student experience. These aspects include Skills Development, Learner Engagement, Teaching Quality, Student Support, and Learning Resources as well as the international living experience and reasons for choosing to study at their institution and in Australia. More detailed results for international students, including information about students’ education and living experiences in Australia are available at the Quality Indicators for Learning and Teaching (QILT) below.

Graduate Outcomes Survey (GOS)

The GOS presents data on graduate employment outcomes for international students at Australian higher education institutions, approximately four to six months after they have completed their studies. More detailed results for international students, including information about students’ short-term employment outcomes including skills utilisation, further study activities, and graduate satisfaction are available at the Quality Indicators for Learning and Teaching below.

Graduate Outcomes Survey – Longitudinal (GOS-L)

The GOS-L measures the medium-term outcomes of higher education graduates based on a cohort analysis of graduates who responded to the GOS three years ago. More detailed outcomes on short-term and medium-term labour market outcomes as well as the skills utilisation and further study outcomes of graduates are available at the Quality Indicators for Learning and Teaching (QILT) below.
