Consultation Process
Discussion paper on skills reform
In April 2008, the Minister for Skills and Workforce Participation released a discussion paper on proposed reforms to Victoria's vocational education and training (VET) system. Individuals, industry and providers were invited to respond to the paper on how to:
- boost the numbers of individuals and businesses accessing training, leading to a big increase in the skills of Victoria's workforce
- have a VET system that engages more effectively with individuals and businesses and is easier to navigate
- make the VET system more responsive and flexible to the changing skill needs of businesses and individuals, and;
- create a stronger culture of lifelong learning
