The 2025 Delivery Classification Guide has now been published by the Tertiary Education Commission (TEC).

2025 Delivery Classification Guide

The Delivery Classification Guide (DCG) helps providers to accurately assign a delivery classification and funding category to each course, micro-credential or programme of study they deliver, as required under the funding conditions.  

The 2025 DCG applies to the funding period from 1 January 2025.  

The DCG is reviewed and updated annually. For 2025, we have added guidance on how to use the document for each applicable fund, and made some minor changes to the classifications. 

For a detailed list of the changes made to the DCG for 2025, see 2025 Delivery Classification Guide changes.
