The VPC (Victorian Pathways Certificate) is designed for students in Years 11 and 12 who would benefit from a more individualised program at a more accessible level than a senior secondary certificate. The VPC is designed to engage students through applied learning and provides flexibility to meet an individual's learning needs. The VPC aims to build the skills, knowledge, values and capabilities that enable students to make informed choices about pathways into further education, training and/or employment. Through participation in the VPC students will gain the necessary foundation skills to allow them to make a successful post-schooling transition.
The VPC is designed to develop and extend pathways for young people, while providing flexibility for different cohorts. On completion of the VPC students will be able to make informed choices about future employment or education pathways. Meaningful pathways are created by linking student aspirations and future employment goals to the choice of accredited curriculum, as well as connecting VPC learning programs to work and industry experiences and active participation in the community. Including VET in VPC learning programs helps connect students with broader options for work, further education and active community participation. Possible future pathways for VPC students include: completion of VCE or VCE Vocational Major, apprenticeships and traineeships, VET courses, employment.
The purpose of the VPC is to: equip students with the skills, knowledge, values and capabilities to be active and informed citizens, lifelong learners and confident and creative individuals, empower students to make informed decisions about the next stages of their lives through authentic workplace experiences, providing them with the best opportunity to achieve their personal goals and aspirations in a rapidly changing world.
Classroom - Training will be delivered on site at SuniTAFE.
Applicants are required to undertake a Pre-Training Review (ACER Assessment) to help confirm the course is suitable. Students are required to complete the ACER assessment at SuniTAFE under supervision plus an interview to gauge suitability for the VPC.
