The vocational education and training (VET) qualification estimates (ESQUAL) is a mandatory reporting activity required by Thursday, 15 May 2025. Schools are required to report the qualifications being undertaken by students (including students who access training offsite at external providers) and the student details for each qualification.

Details of the units of competency within each qualification are not required to be reported. Schools are only required to update the ESQUAL file after the 15 May deadline if there is a significant change in VET offerings.

Schools will need to indicate the delivery arrangement (e.g. auspice, profile, fee for service) for each VET qualification.

Refer to Section 3.3 in the Data Procedures Manual 2025. The manual can be downloaded from the Authority website at https://www.scsa.wa.edu.au/publications/data-procedures-manual.

Note: uploading an ESQUAL file to the Student Information and Record System (SIRS) causes the previous file to be completely erased. All students should be included in each upload to ensure information on your school record is maintained correctly in SIRS.
