Abstract	One aim of vocational education and training (VET) is to provide a pathway to employment. The effectiveness of this, particularly for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, is an important policy issue. Research demonstrates that, for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, the transition from education to employment does not occur at the same rate as for non-Indigenous Australians (Windley 2017), and the difference in employment rates between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders and non-Indigenous Australians has remained substantial (Productivity Commission 2020). Taking a slightly longer-term view than the immediate transition from VET to employment, this research explores the link between VET participation and sustainable employment for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. By examining the personal and training characteristics associated with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' attainment of sustainable employment, the research aims to determine VET's potential for enabling longer-term benefits for this cohort. Data from the Multi Agency Data Integration Project (MADIP) for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples who commenced at least one VET program in 2016 have been analysed to examine the effect of VET on achieving sustainable employment. Further information on the data and methodologies used can be found in the support document to this publication, which also contains more detailed findings.
