Vocational Education & Training - VET

Vocational Education and Training or VET offers a faster job-focused pathway to a career. VET course provides students with first-hand experience in the workplace. This gives them the right skills and allows them quicker entry into paid work.

At Lumen Christi Catholic College, VET courses can be studied from Year 10, with early commencement course offered in Construction and Hospitality. In 2023 we have introduced VET Business Services in Stage 6 and are looking at other course we can offer in coming years.

The VET landscape in schools is changing. Currently, students can only include one VET course in the calculation of their ATAR. However, for our current Year 10 students and future cohorts, they will be able to undertake multiple VET courses that can count towards the ATAR.

If you have any questions about VET, please contact one of our VET Coordinators – Mr Russell Lyons or Mrs Ingrid Thompson russell.lyons@cg.catholic.edu.au or ingrid.thompson@cg.catholic.edu.au
