About VCE VET

There are many nationally recognised vocational certificates that you can undertake as part of, and within, the VCE or VCAL. This enables you to complete both the VCE or VCAL and a vocational qualification at the same time.

The VCAA provides direct credit in the VCE for a specific set of vocational certificates, which are called VCE VET programs. These programs are included in the VCE with Units1 and 2 and Units 3 and 4 levels of recognition.

VCE VET programs can be included in both the VCE and the VCAL.

VCE VET programs may be offered in schools, Adult Community Education (ACE) providers, Technical and Further Education (TAFE) institutions, the Centre for Adult Education (CAE) or private Registered Training Organisations (RTOs).

VCE VET programs are available in a range of industry areas including business, hospitality, information technology and multimedia.

See the VCE VET programs page for more information.

Block Recognition

Other vocational certificates can also contribute towards satisfactory completion of the VCE. If you have completed training at Certificate II level or above in an area not covered in VCE VET programs, the VCAA may award you credit.

This is called 'Block Credit Recognition'.

Certificate II training may contribute to the VCE at Units 1 and 2 level and training at Certificate III and above may contribute at Units 3 and 4 level.
