Educational performance indicator reports - current methodology

Last updated 7 July 2023

We publish information on the performance of tertiary education organisations (TEOs) based on agreed educational performance indicators (EPIs). Our EPI reports are designed to help TEOs manage and monitor their own performance and to deliver on their agreed tertiary education services.

This page relates to EPI reports using the current methodology. You can also view the EPI reports for individual TEOs using our previous methodology.

For Te Pūkenga (former institutes of technology and polytechnics), universities, wānanga and private training establishments the reports are available for 2015 to 2017. For providers arranging industry training the reports are available for 2016 to 2022.

The information in these EPI reports includes learners we have funded as well as learners who have been funded through other sources, for example, international students.

Note that external factors such as the Canterbury earthquakes or Covid-19 may have negative impacts on an organisations ability to deliver courses and enrolment numbers, which may in turn affect educational performance.

The full impact on EPIs can be evident for several years as cohort-based EPIs, particularly qualification completion, are confirmed.

More detail about what each of the indicators show is also available on our Educational performance indicators for TEOs page.

Please note that for all TEOs except providers arranging industry training the reports are for previous years’ performance (2015 to 2017).
