On Friday September 20, the Committee made public the individual indicative caps for all providers types.
Until now, many private and VET providers had preferred to keep private their indicative numbers for 2025 under the government’s proposed National Planning Level.
A download of the documents containing the indicative caps for VET providers can be found here, while that of all higher education providers can be found here.
Only this week, The PIE News reported that IHEA’s chief executive officer Peter Hendy had warned the leaders of independent providers that the information could be made public imminently.
Hendy, along with concerned IHEA board member Eve Ollerenshaw, had raised concerns around private provider caps being released, highlighting the “commercially sensitive nature” of such details.
“In a private enterprise environment, the government should not be easily jeopardising businesses at a critical time in their career, in their history, by potentially disclosing their incredible financial vulnerability,” said Ollerenshaw.

They anticipated the details would be shared on October 2 at the next scheduled hearing, but the latest development means the release has come sooner than expected.
It follows public university caps being made public during a recent hearing on September 6.
