VET programs will contribute a unit 1-4 sequence in their own right for completion of the VCE. Up to three sequences, other than English can be approved VET VCE Unit 3 and 4 sequences. However, note that VET retail programs often completed as part of a casual job will usually only represent a further unit 1 & 2 sequence and will not provide any contribution to a student’s final ATAR score.
