Have you read the latest synthesis of NCVER’s research over the 2011-14 period?  My congratulations go to Francesca Beddie and Associates for this thought-provoking publication.  My overall reaction to this very informative piece of work is that it really highlights  that VET, like so many other aspects of Australian society, is actually at a watershed moment.  I recommend  you have a read at the NCVER Publications site.
