VCE VM
Students study 16 - 20 units over two (2) years.
Students enrol in a VET (Vocational Education & Training) course at Certificate II or III level.
Standards based assessments, no external examinations, no ATAR - students will be required to sit the GAT (General Achievement Test) at MEC.
Structured Workplace Learning can be included in the VCE-VM program.
A Typical Week in VCE VM
Students completing VCE-VM have classes spread across all 5 days of the week.
Most VET programs take place on either a Wednesday or Friday. The senior timetable has been designed so that students undertaking a VET miss the smallest amount of at-school learning time as possible.
Structured Workplace Learning can be a component of the program and can be organised in different ways, but all require the approval of the College before they can be commenced.
Students are responsible for finding their own Work Placement, but the College will help where possible.
