Vocational Education and Training Delivered to Secondary Schools
VDSS – (Vocational Education and Training Delivered to Secondary Schools) courses provide additional breadth to the VCE. A Vocational Education and Training (VET) study provides a nationally recognised qualification endorsed by a specific industry or provides credit towards one. These programs are completed over 2 years (Years 10 and 11) and provide a qualification or partial completion of a Certificate II or III. VET programs contribute towards the completion of the VCE or the VCE Vocational Major (VM) and, most contribute towards a study score that counts towards a student’s Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR). VET is a compulsory study for students undertaking the VCE VM.
At Strathmore Secondary College, a maximum of one VET subject may be taken as part of a student’s course. No VET subjects may be taken as part of a Year 12 course. VET program offerings are restricted to those offered by selected providers. Please consult with the VDSS Cordinator for details regarding VET.
