On 28th November 2018, it was announced by Australian PM, Scott Morrison, that an independent review of the VET sector will be launched.
Touted as being the first in 40 years, the review is said to focus on "skills people need when they leave school, but also later in life when they might be looking to improve their skills, change industries or build on general literacy and numeracy". (Minister for Small and Family Business, Skills and Vocational Education, Senator Michaelia Cash)
VET PD Group will gather and record the available mentions of the review, and the various links will be updated here regularly.

Terms of Reference - Expert review of Australia’s vocational education and training system
- The Review will have regard to VET funding, policy and regulatory settings and how they can be optimised to support both school leavers and workers to maximise the achievement of relevant skills and employment outcomes from the VET sector.
- It will examine skills shortages in VET-related occupations, in particular any tension between VET outcomes and the needs of industries and employers, and what might be done to better align these.
- It will consider expected changes in future work patterns and the impact of new technologies and how the VET sector can prepare Australians for those changes and the opportunities they will bring.
- The Review may consider the flexibility of qualification structures, particularly for mid-career workers, and for industries seeking rapid deployment of new skills.
- The Review may have regard to community perceptions of the effectiveness of the VET sector and the accessibility and utility of information about VET options and outcomes, both for employers and students, including information linking training options to employment outcomes.
- It may review whether additional support is needed for vulnerable cohorts, including those currently unemployed and at risk of unemployment, or those with low literacy and numeracy skills.
- The Review may seek out case studies of best practice in VET, and consider whether specific trials should be undertaken to test innovative approaches likely to deliver better outcomes.
- The Review should have regard to the scope and outcomes from any previous or forthcoming reviews, consultation to date, and inputs made by industry and peak groups.

Update from VET Review: Thoughts from the expert reviewer 1.2.19
The lead of the Independent Review into Australia’s vocational education and training (VET) sector has revealed some of his findings to date.
Mr Joyce said he was surprised by the lack of information on VET pathways being provided to school leavers.
Of his findings so far, Mr Joyce said confusion over funding was one of the most significant.
Mr Joyce spent January meeting with stakeholders Mr Joyce, said a bias towards university education in Australia did a disservice to students who could excel at vocational education.
“If VET was invented after higher ed, my view is that people would find it a really attractive alternative option,” he said.
“I mean, ‘Wow, that’s fantastic, you mean I don’t have to go to university for four years, and I don’t have to get a big loan, and I can earn money straight away?’ What a great new system that would be. I think that sort of in-built bias into the system means some people don’t do the jobs that they love, and some people don’t do the jobs that would make sense for them.”
Mr Joyce will continue his consultations in February. He will report to the Government in March.
