Vocational Courses

Unlike other vocational training that a candidate might have experienced in their home country,  Australia's Vocational Education and Training (VET)  is unique as it is based on partnership between the governments and industry. VET qualifications are provided by government institution called  Technical  and  Further  Education (TAFE) institutions as well as private institutions. 

​

The candidate learns from a seasoned industry peer who shares the same passion as the candidate. The VET trainers actually have real life experience in the specific field that they are teaching. The VET trainers strive to ensure that the course material are updated to reflect the changes in the industry. This provides a unique insight into the finer nuances of the subjects as the teaching material is not all theory based and enables the candidate to be more prepared on what to expect when they start working. 

​

The majority of the VET courses incorporate a period of on-the-job learning. What's more exciting then being able to learn not only in the classroom but also a valuable real life work experience in a genuine work environment. As such, when you actually start your first day of the job, there are no surprises. 

​

A national VET Regulator - Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA) ensures the quality of education provided by the VET training institution to more than 1.2 million students all around Australian. VET qualifications are outcome based and focuses on the occupational skills and competencies gained. Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) recognizes prior learning or current competence in the industry. As such, students have a flexible learning pathway as credits transfer is also an option. 

​

Whether if a candidate is looking to take the first step into tertiary education or start working, an Australian Vocational and Training qualification is definitely a plus and provides a solid foundation for the candidates future.
