AATIS Research

The AATIS Research Team undertake projects that inform our work as an information service. This includes projects into information provision methods, such as understanding how parents and young people access careers information. In turn, this research influences the ways that AATIS provides information. Other projects focus on Australian Apprenticeships and information needs in this industry, informing the content we present.

The Australian Apprenticeships and Traineeships Information Service (AATIS) is funded by the Australian Government Department of Employment and Workplace Relations. AATIS is a neutral and trusted source of information and resources in the Australian Apprenticeships industry.

Our work assists organisations in the Australian Apprenticeships, school and careers, employment services, and wider VET industries. AATIS works closely with industry stakeholders to ensure that their respective information and resource requirements are met.

Results from the Stakeholder Survey show that:

97% of stakeholders report that AATIS is useful
82% of stakeholders agree that it is important for AATIS to deliver a consistent source of information
77% of stakeholders agree that the information provided by AATIS is accurate and reliable
73% of stakeholders agree that AATIS resources are valuable for use with clients

Responses to open text fields show that stakeholders are looking for AATIS to continue our work, and expand resources. There were no responses to a question around any resources or platforms that are no longer useful and/or that could be removed from our work.
