This will have occurred where students have enrolled in more than one course or studied in multiple locations in the NT. As a result, totals in this section differ between tables. Information about totals is contained in the notes for each table. The number of VET students in the Central region from 2003 to 2007 is shown in Table 4.103.

Chapter 4 Northern Territory Regional Profi les - Central Region For the Central region, VET participation is more concentrated in lower-level qualifications than is the case for the NT as a whole. Certificates I and II represent 54% of training in the region compared to 43% in the NT. Participation in Certificates III and IV, Diploma and Advanced Diploma courses is lower than in the NT overall. VET participation in the Central region is further profiled in Table 4.105, which shows student numbers by field of study. The numbers show where skills are being developed in the population. Only those fields with 1% or more of the total student numbers are shown.
