Vocational Education and Training (VET) Framework Courses

Vocational Education and Training (VET) Framework courses are Board Developed courses that allow students to gain both Higher School Certificate qualifications and Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) VET accreditation. They enable students to study courses which:

• Students receive special documentation showing the competencies gained. 

• Are relevant to industry needs and have clear links to post-school destinations. 

• The national framework is recognised across Australia and helps students to move easily between the various education and training sectors and employment. 

• These courses each have a mandatory workplace component with a minimum number of hours that students are required to spend in the workplace. 

• Some of these courses will be delivered by schools, while all can be delivered by TAFE or other providers.
