VOCATIONAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING
The VET program at Warragul Regional College provides students with hands-on training in a variety of industries, enabling them to gain nationally recognized qualifications while still in school. VET courses are available as part of both the VCE and VM pathways, ensuring students develop industry-specific skills that prepare them for employment or further education.
Only students with Department Of Education accounts (@schools.vic.edu.au) can access the VET Expression of Interest Form for 2026.
What is VET?
VET programs involve completing a Cert II or III course which will give students the knowledge and practical skills that address the employment needs of industry and provides opportunities for students to participate in Structured Workplace Learning, that could then lead into future employment.
It provides the opportunity to continue these studies at a higher level (Certificate IV, Diploma) after completing secondary school.
These programs are completed over one or two years and contribute to the completion of both VCE and VCE Vocational Major (VM).
Some courses have scored assessments which mean they directly contribute to an ATAR score that VCE students gain on completion of Year 12.
