Manufacturing and Engineering – VET FACULTY: Technological and Applied Studies

What types of assessment will be used? Students must present for assessment evidence of the learning related to the course outcomes they have achieved whilst in the workplace. Students must submit this evidence weekly to their VET Teacher (if school is RTO) and VET Coordinator 4 times a year of HSC study. The Industry Based Learning Log consists of two parts:

• Tasks and activities which have been undertaken in the workplace. • A reflective journal of the learning related to the course outcomes which has developed from the on-the-job training component of the school-based apprenticeship or traineeship.

Is there anything else you should know? For students to complete this course they must have met the onthe-job training requirements contained in the school-based apprenticeship or traineeship training plan.
