VET Delivered To Secondary Students

VET (Vocational Education and Training) courses are nationally recognised qualifications that give you job ready skills and knowledge with industry-focused hands on learning in specific occupations. While in Yr 10, student can apply for the VETDSS programs with a public Registered Training Organisation (RTO) such as South Metropolitan TAFE or North Metropolitan TAFE or prive RTOs. 

If accepted, Students will study either ON-SITE here at the College or OFF-SITE at one of the RTOs.

Studying VETDSS course on-site

At The King's College we offer VETDSS ONSITE for:

1. BSB30120 - Cert III Business
2. SIS30122 - Cert III Sport, Aquatic and Recreation
3. CUA20620 - Cert II Music
4. CUA40920  -  Cert IV Music

These courses are delivered at school by school teachers who are qualified to also teach VETDSS courses. The classes will be timetabled just like all other classes. 

Studying VETDSS course off-site

During Yr 11 and Yr 12, students at The King's College, can also choose from many VETDSS courses, that are studied OFF-SITE. This means students will attend school four days a week, with one day per week spent learning at an external Registered Training Organisation (RTO).

Completion of a VETDSS course contributes to the Western Australian Certificate of Education (WACE).

It is the student's responsibility to ensure they attend the correct TAFE campus or training provider on the designated day for the entire duration of their course. Attendance is essential, as these courses involve regular practical skill assessments conducted by industry professionals, and students must be present to be assessed.
