How is the VCAL assessed?
All accredited courses/certificates that make up your VCAL program are assessed by your teacher and/or RTO.
Do I need to sit for the General Achievement Test (GAT)?
The GAT is a test of knowledge and skills in writing, mathematics, science and technology, humanities and social sciences and the arts. It is done by all students doing one or more VCE or scored VCE VET Unit 3 and 4 sequences.
Students whose only enrolment consists of VCAL units are not required to sit the GAT. However, you can choose to sit the GAT if it is appropriate to your pathway into further education, training or employment.
