2. Broad Provision = Student Engagement
VET enrolments this year - about 375 in 34 VET Certificates - including ASBAs
Each year about 40 students come from about 16 other schools on Wednesdays for 10 VET Programs delivered at Sandringham College
Timetabling only two blocks on a Wednesday for VCE students & running no VCAL classes on Wednesdays & Fridays allows access to a wide range of VET programs for all students
About half of our students do their VET training on campus which keeps costs down (although there is a down side to this)
3. VET Programs under Block Credit Arrangements Not all interest areas covered by VCE/VET programs
We replaced 2 Extension Programs (in Acting & Art) for VCE students that had no VCE credits with VET programs that give Year 12 credits, ENTER increments etc
4. How? Go to www.ntis.org.au
Find course/ look at training package
Discuss with potential teacher look at appropriateness overlap with VCE subjects etc
Check hours :
180 at Cert II = Units 1 & 2
180 at Cert III = Units 3 & 4 (beware nesting)
find local providers compare costs etc
after actual enrolment - check VCE/VCAL credits (if new)
5. In Summary Belief that broad provision = student engagement
Wide range of VET both on & off campus
Programs are accessible (times, venues, costs)
No compulsory VET subjects (apart from it being compulsory for VCAL students)
Can run a number of VET programs at Sandringham by opening them up to students from other schools (via our LCP Youth Connect)
VET provides Work Placement (good reality check)
Block credit arrangements provide access to wider range of programs
Working from the student out forces us to think outside the square and to be flexible & innovative
