NSW VET Review Response to Discussion Paper
UAC is pleased to provide a response to the NSW VET Review Discussion Paper, with a particular focus on how students can be supported to transition to or from VET and higher education learning to achieve their aspirations.
The UAC system could be used to streamline tertiary admissions for students by expanding to include TAFE and other VET providers offering a wider array of AQF courses. In recent years UAC has adapted to encompass both ATAR and non-ATAR admissions and is continuing to look at ways in which students can be assessed on non-academic criteria.
Further opportunities could leverage UAC’s credit management system to better articulate for students the wide array of pathways into and between higher and vocational education.
