What are VET programs?

Vocational Education and Training (VET) studies combine general Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) or Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning (VCAL) with vocational training and experience in the workplace.

A VET program offers students the opportunity to complete a nationally recognised vocational qualification while providing credit towards the VCE or VCAL, just like other subject areas.

The vocational qualification provides access to further training – generally at a TAFE – and could improve your chances of finding a job when you finish school.

How does VET contribute towards VCE?

All VCE VET programs and most VET programs are fully recognised within the Unit 1-4 structure of the VCE and contribute towards the satisfactory completion of your VCE. Most VET programs require two years to complete.

A number of VCE VET programs also have a study score attached which contributes towards your ATAR score. Students who study VCE VET programs and receive a Unit 3-4 sequence will be eligible for a 10 percent increment towards their ATAR (10 percent of the average of the primary four scaled studies) or a direct contribution through an external exam, just like other VCE subjects.

How does VET contribute towards VCAL?

Within the VCAL certificate, VET programs satisfy the Industry Specific Skills Strand requirements. If a student completes a full VET program (Unit 1-4) they should achieve 4 units of credit towards their VCAL certificate.

VCE VET programs with a study score

The study score can contribute directly to the ATAR as one of the student’s primary four scaled studies or as the fifth or sixth study.

It is important to note that the 3-4 sequences of VET programs are not designed as stand-alone studies. In order to receive the VET qualification, students must complete the entire Unit 1-4 structure of a VET program.

The following VET programs have a study score available to students undertaking the relevant Unit 3-4 sequence.

• Business

• Engineering

• Furnishing

• Hospitality

• Informationtechnology

• Interactivedigitalmedia

• Sportandrecreation

6. Code of Conduct: Students are expected to behave in a professional and courteous manner at all times; discipline procedures do apply.

“ThroughKanganInstitute,I’vegaineda lot more knowledge about the building industry and how my life could change and what direction I can lead myself into.

I’m a bit hands-on so I find the building industry more interesting than others because I like creating things. I’ve built a few saw-horses, a gazebo, garden arbour (through the World Skills competition) and wall frames.

I have a job at the moment. I work in domestic building and I love it. I want to run my own business as soon as I finish my apprenticeship. I plan on having my own apprentice and to have people work for me and later on becomeafullbuilder.”
