TAFEs’ internal controls are adequate for them to prepare reliable financial reports and performance statements. But they need to improve their information technology (IT) controls. These issues could prevent TAFEs from preparing reliable financial reports or protecting their sensitive data.
The sector’s financial performance improved in 2022 because of financial support received from government to TAFEs. This support helped pay employee costs and maintain assets. Four TAFEs also had loans forgiven by the Victorian Government. Financial performance would have declined without this financial assistance.
We provided clear audit opinions on financial reports and performance statements across the Technical and Further Education (TAFE) sector. Parliament and the community can confidently use these reports.
There are 12 TAFEs and 14 controlled entities in the Victorian TAFE sector.
