Manufacturing
2014
Manufacturing includes the physical or chemical transformation of materials, substances or components into new products
(except agriculture and construction). The materials, substances or components transformed by units in this industry are
raw materials that are products of agriculture, forestry, fishing and mining, or products of other manufacturing units. Units
in the Manufacturing industry are often described as plants, factories or mills and characteristically use power-driven
machines and other materials-handling equipment.
In 2014, there were 44,759 enrolments in Manufacturing related courses. The highest proportion of enrolments were in the
Certificate III and Certificate IV qualification levels (86 per cent in total). The largest number of enrolments were in Certificate
III in Competitive Systems and Practices (8,575 enrolments) and Certificate IV in Competitive Systems and Practices (5,848
enrolments). Approximately 16 per cent of Manufacturing training was related to specialised or in shortage occupations,
equating to 7,226 enrolments.

Department of Education and Training (DET), March 2015.
Data notes:
All figures are government subsidised enrolments, accredited (state or national) qualifications only (excludes foundation training).
Yearly data is based on preliminary data extracted from SVTS system as at 25 February 2015. Figures may be revised prior to the year-end submission to
National Centre for Vocational Education and Research (NCVER).
Industry classifications are defined by the Australian Bureau of Statistics’ Australian and New Zealand Standard Industrial Classifications (ANZSIC).
Where a qualification is considered relevant across more than one industry, enrolments have been proportionally allocated across most relevant
industries using employment data as a guide.
Specialised occupations are defined by the Australian Workforce and Productivity Agency’s 2014 list of specialised occupations. Skills shortage
occupations are informed by DET’s list of Victorian Skills Shortages 2014.
