Vocational Education and Training (VET)

Whether you are looking to move straight into the workforce, or to take an initial step in your tertiary education, an Australian VET qualification can take you where you want to go.

Overview

NSW VET sector is based on a partnership between governments and industry. VET qualifications are provided by government institutions, called Technical and Further Education (TAFE) institutions, as well as private institutions. Australian government (federal and state) provide funding, develop policies, and contribute to regulation and quality assurance of the sector.

A priceless industry experience in a genuine work environment

Industry and employer groups contribute to training policies and priorities, and in developing qualifications that deliver skills to the workforce. Many of our VET courses incorporate a period of on-site learning, which means you do not just learn in a classroom but get priceless industry experience in a genuine work environment.

It is real-world industry experience that ensures your qualifications fully prepare you for employment in your chosen industry.

Flexible learning pathways and practical experience

VET qualifications are outcome based and focus on the occupational skills and competencies gained. The Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) recognises prior learning or current competence in the industry. This makes credit transfer easier and offers students flexible learning pathways.

Qualifications range across four levels of certificates (Certificate I, II, III and IV), as well as Diploma courses and Advanced Diploma courses. Your VET course will broaden your skills in a specialised area that teaches you the practical experience you’ll need for the workplace. It will train you to design, plan, and execute the practical and technical aspects of your field in an industry context.
