• Allows students to go directly into employment or receive credit towards further study.

Students can choose a VET program as part of their VCE or VCAL programs. VET is offered to Year 10 students as an extension study. This means that students will be undertaking training in a specific vocation (examples listed above) and the VET program will give them credit at VCE Units 1-4. This training will contribute towards satisfactory completion of their VCE or VCAL and it will give them a nationally recognised vocational qualification. VET programs can contribute to the ATAR.
