Hi!!
Unluckily, I have not found a list compiled in an office file (Excel),
so I must did it from the list of names found at different sources.
The result is an Excel file with two worksheets, one for high schools
and universities and another for TAFE colleges. This last category is
for institutions that offer vocational education and/or bridging
between grade schools and universities.
The main sources consulted was:
"AQF Register of Recognised Education Institutions & Authorised
Accreditation Authorities in Australia" (and subsequent links):
http://www.aqf.edu.au/register.htm#university
At Australian-Universities.com:
-"List of Colleges in Australia":
http://www.australian-universities.com/colleges/list.php
-"List of Australian Universities":
http://www.australian-universities.com/list/
"List of universities in Australia - Wikipedia":
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_universities_in_Australia
You can download the file from here:

I hope that you find this helpful. If you find that something is
missing or need an improvement, please use the clarification feature
to request it before rate this answer. I will gladly respond your
requests related to this question.
Best regards.

According to the sources (official sources) yes, this is the list of
Higher Education Institutions (High Schools + Universities) plus the
list of TAFE colleges. But I forgot to include a list of some private
Higher Education providers, I will do it soon.
Please accept my appologies, I will gladly complete the research and
compile that list for you.
Regards.

Hi again!!
I reviewed my sources, as you can see the official sources are not
well organized, so I searched for a new one and foundone that I think
is very reliable and complete.
The source is the Hobsons Guides website, the publishers of the Good
Universities Guides. as they claim "You will find the FACTS on every
university and TAFE course - costs, admission requirements, length,
specialisations available, detailed profiles and much more. At Hobsons
Guides, we're independent, authoritative, comprehensive - and helpful!
Please make full use of the searches and general information to help
you find the best education in Australia."
http://www.thegoodguides.com.au/site
From this site I recompiled the Higher Education Providers
(Universities and High Schools) list, now classified by region. I
added the non listed accredited higher education institutions that
come from the official sources the get the comprehensive list. The
TAFE colleges list is included again.
I replaced the file so the link to download this new version is the same:

Could you separate out the list in terms of high school and universities.
Even with this new list, (exlcu. TAFE) the total list is around 250,
which i find hard to believe. I mean there have to be more than 250
high schools and universities in all of Australia. Please do clarify.
There is a critical need for a comprehensive list. If you can't find
it, we can consider a refund or some thing.

Hi!!
As I told you, according to the reputed sources I cited, this is the
most comprehensive list that I can do for you, note that one big
university like Edith Cowan University can provide more than 100
different careers courses in all its different faculties, so please
consider that in your number estimations, if you are still unsatisfied
with the result of my research let me know and we can talk about the
refund, note that I cannot say you this is the ACTUAL FIGURES because
the sources are not clear anough and i accept that something can be
missed and again this is all that I can find and I cannot invent more
just to increase the number.
If after this new clarification you are agree with what I found, I
will continue with the separations between high schools and
Universities.
Best regards.

required, again the file was updated so the link is the same:

Since I need the information for a very critical use which requires
the list to be comprehensive beyond doubt. And honestly i'm have my
doubts. I think a refund, in good spirit makes the most sense. What do
you say?

It is your right to do so, if you consider that my answer is not good
enough to your needs, feel free to proceed with the refund process.
In defense of my work I want to add two short references from reputed sources:
"As at December 2004 there were 55 approved Higher Education Providers
in NSW ?12 self-accrediting (or public providers) and 43 non
self-accrediting (or private providers)."
From the article "THE IMPORTANCE OF PRIVATE PROVIDERS OF
POST-COMPULSORY EDUCATION TO THE NSW ECONOMY AND TO MEETING THE
STATE?S SKILLS TRAINING NEEDS", page 8. This is an article published
by the ACPET (Australian Council for Private Education and Training):
http://www.acpet.edu.au/__data/page/60/NSW_Private_Education.pdf
I have provided you with a greater number of institutions than 55,
this is because my list includs national providers that have
facilities in NSW.
Regarding to the low total number I did not find definitive numbers
but according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics "Higher education
is provided in a relatively small number of institutions, many with
several campuses, and with institutions usually having large numbers
of students."
From "Education and Training Indicators" published by the Australian
Bureau of Statistics (2.5 MB)
http://www.abs.gov.au/ausstats/subscriber.nsf/log?openagent&42300%5F2002%2Epdf&4230%2E0&Publication&3EC41B1520088D8ACA256C85007B00AF&0&2002&05%2E12%2E2002&Latest
I hope that you are not dissapointed with our service, I tried to do
the best with the tools I have.
Sincerely,
