VET Subjects

Getting hands on with industry-related study

 

Are you a Year 9 or 10 student who enjoys hands-on learning? Applications are now open for 2025 VET Subjects. VET stands for Vocational Education and Training and our students can apply for a wide range of industry-related VET Subjects at other nearby schools and TAFEs as one of their VCE subjects (yes, it contributes to your ATAR) or in Year 10 as a VCE Advancement Subject. 

 

VET APPLICATION FORMS for 2025 are due in Term 2 or by the end of Week 1, Term 3 at the latest (Friday 19th July).
