Vocational Education and Training

Vocational education and training (VET) enables students to acquire skills and knowledge for work through a nationally recognised industry-developed training package or accredited course. Undertaking VET may benefit students’ exploration of a variety of career pathways and students can complete VET qualifications in a diverse range of industries, including business administration, childcare, aged care, hospitality, game design/animation or sport and recreation.

Why study VET?

VET is an excellent choice of study for many students. It includes practical, hands-on learning, improves employability skills, and can lead to jobs in many fields. Studying VET as part of the SACE gives students a head start on a qualification, while also developing independence and time-management skills sought after by employers.
