Method & notes
The differences are descriptive rather than a provider-quality ranking, especially because provider scale and programme mix vary sharply.
METHOD & LIMITATIONSPost-study status by TVET provider, not a provider-quality ranking.
PulseKita reproduces MOHE Higher Education Statistics 2023 Table 7.3. Each frame is one TVET institution category and preserves all five published status shares.
- This is a 2023 Graduate Tracer Study snapshot, not a current 2026 forecast.
- Provider categories have very different respondent counts and programme mixes.
- Working share is separate from further study, upskilling and waiting for placement; PulseKita does not collapse them into one ranking.
- Small-provider percentages, especially MOTAC and KKR, should be read cautiously because respondent bases are small.
