VET Qualifications Reform - what's changing and why?

In this episode of the podcast Claire explains why Skills Ministers are embarking on reforms to VET qualifications, where the process is up to, and what the changes are likely to mean for RTOs. She also explains why there's a demand for change and why the VET sector might go through all of this effort, only to find industry subsequently arguing (again) for more specificity and prescription.If you haven't engaged yet with the VET Qualifications Reform work - you'll find the following links useful:The Department of Employment and Workplace Relations Qualifications Reform information page: https://www.dewr.gov.au/skills-reform/vet-qualification-reformVET Qualification Reform Consultation Feedback: https://www.dewr.gov.au/skills-reform/resources/vet-qualification-reform-consultation-feedbackQualifications Reform - Public Webinar presentation: https://www.dewr.gov.au/skills-reform/resources/qualifications-reform-public-webinar-presentationClaire's Campus Morning Mail article explaining the differences between the German and Australian hospitality training requirements: https://campusmorningmail.com.au/news/short-and-to-the-point-germany-can-teach-us-about-training/The 2018 Strategic Capability Review of TAFE SA by former CEO of ANTA (and former Secretary of the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet), Terry Moran: https://www.voced.edu.au/content/ngv%3A80642Contact Claire:Connect with me on LinkedIn: Claire FieldFollow me on Bluesky: @clairefield.bsky.social Check out the news pages on my website: clairefield.com.auEmail me at: [email protected] The ‘What now?
