Subject and purpose of work: This paper aims to assess the operational efficiency of public higher vocational schools in the Lublin Region.

Materials and methods: The assessment was based on the non-parametric method of data envelopment analysis (DEA) using the standard CCR-O model.

Results: In most of the analysed models (E, N, O series), the public higher vocational schools in the Lublin Region were found to have improved their efficiency in 2019 relative to 2017.

Conclusions: E-series models are very susceptible to changes, both in terms of inputs and effects. This gives the possibility of a significant impact on the increase in the assessment of the effectiveness of investigated units DMUs. N-series models demonstrate the importance of aggregation and quality of source data for the results of performance assessment. Class O models justify the need to look for and compare the use of other DEA model variants in the study of the effectiveness of public higher vocational schools.
