What is VET?
Vocational education and training, VET, is training (excluding higher education) that gives people work-related knowledge and skills. VET covers preparatory entry-level and advanced-skill programs in technical and further education (TAFE) institutes, schools, private training organisations, and workplace and community settings. VET has a practical emphasis and is directly linked to the needs of business and industry. Representatives from business and industry help design and update VET courses to ensure that they are relevant and related to the needs of specific jobs.
