Vocational Education and Training in Schools (VETiS)

Vocational Education and Training (VET) is learning that is directly related to work. VET programs allow students to complete nationally recognised qualifications developed by industry to give them the skills and knowledge they need to work in a particular job. VET courses are available in a range of qualification levels.

Students who are considering a vocational or VCE-VM pathway, or those looking for vocational skills to complement a tertiary education pathway, can undertake VET as part of their senior school program. This may be done by choosing one of the VET qualifications offered onsite at the College, offsite at another school within the Mullum VETiS Cluster, or with an external Registered Training Organisation (RTO) provider.

VET courses offered onsite at Mater Christi College include:

Certificate II in Hospitality

• Certificate II in Small Business

Certificate II and III in Applied Languages (Chinese).

Further information is available about each of these courses in the subject information section of this guide.

Please note:

Many VET courses fill up very quickly, so it is essential that students complete the College’s VET Application Form and return in immediately if they wish to be enrolled in their preferred VET course. These forms are available in the My MCC Knowledge Bank.

Providers of VET courses set a tuition fee that is payable by parents/carers. These tuition fees are not published until the beginning of the year of study. The fees also vary based on qualification level, provider and/or course content. Please contact the College’s VET Learning Leader for information about the typical fee structures of your preferred course.
