Work Based API
Purpose
This document is for tertiary education organisations (TEOs) delivering work-based learning. It has information about the data that the Tertiary Education Commission (TEC) requires when you report actual delivery (Actuals) on our new Data Exchange Platform (DXP).
This document does not include information regarding the data reported for provider-based learning (i.e., SDR Provider-based, Workspace2 funds, Workforce Questionnaire and RS20). This is published in a separate document.
This document is not:
- a user guide.
- a specification document of physical objects. It is a data specification outlining the minimum data to be collected, arranged by the real-world entities the data describes.
The requirement to submit data
The TEC and the Ministry of Education (MoE) require data submitted by TEOs for the purposes of:
- funding
- monitoring performance
- publishing performance information
- statistical reporting, and
- policy formation.
All TEOs that receive TEC funding for work-based learning must report work-based learning. You must report all learners eligible for tuition subsidies.
Each TEO is responsible for the integrity of data provided to the TEC.
Three excerpts from the Education and Training Act 2020 support data submissions from TEOs:
