QILT Information

Quality Indicators for Learning and Teaching (QILT) are a suite of government endorsed surveys for higher education, across the student life cycle from commencement to employment. QILT makes available robust, nationally consistent performance data for Australian higher education, helping drive quality improvement. Student Experience Survey (SES) - The SES is the only comprehensive survey of current higher education students in Australia. The survey collects information that helps both higher education institutions and the government improve teaching and learning outcomes. Graduate Outcomes Survey (GOS) - The GOS is completed by graduates of Australian higher education institutions approximately four to six months after completing their studies. Graduate Outcomes Survey - Longitudinal (GOS-L) - The GOS-L is completed by graduates of Australian higher education institutions approximately three years after completing their studies. Employer Satisfaction Survey (ESS) - The ESS is the only national survey that measures the extent to which higher education institutions in Australia are preparing graduates to meet employer needs. The ComparED website is built on QILT data from the SES and GOS. The information available on the ComparED website is intended to help users make informed decisions about their future study options.
