Adding units of competency to VCE VET programs

The VCAA develops VCE VET programs in consultation with reference groups comprising industry, registered training organisations and schools. Once the VCE VET program structure is approved, the VCAA cannot add units of competency to the program structure.

Refer to the program extracts for each VCE VET program to obtain the list of units of competency that are available. Schools should discuss which units are appropriate with their registered training organisation.

Structured Workplace Learning Recognition – new from 2018

Structured Workplace Learning Recognition (SWLR) program information is now available. Please visit the VCAA website to download guidelines, fact sheets and Workplace Learning Records for more than 20 VCE VET programs.

In order for your students to receive credit, your school must attend an SWLR training session prior to recording an enrolment on VASS.

The VCAA will be conducting additional workshops for schools interested in implementing SWLR. These workshops will be conducted in Term 2. Locations will be determined based on feedback from the SWLR Workshop expression of interest survey.
