Australia announces new Vocational Degree

//Australia announces new Vocational Degree

In a significant addition to Australia’s wide range of industry-aligned qualifications, Australia will soon offer a new Vocational Degree as part of the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF).

What is a Vocational Degree?

This new qualification will offer advanced skills and specialised technical knowledge. It will be at the same education (AQF) level as a traditional Bachelor degree but will offer more ‘applied’ or practical learning.

The Vocational Degree will include a range of training delivery modes, including apprenticeships. This will suit students who prefer hands-on learning experiences.

Why was the Vocational Degree introduced?

The Australian Government’s 2023 “Jobs and Opportunities: Working Future” White Paper, outlines the need for higher-level tertiary skills qualifications to meet industry skills needs.

Who is developing the courses?

Public Technical and Further Education (TAFE) Centres of Excellence, and the Australian Government’s Jobs and Skills Councils, have already begun developing Vocational Degree curricula in response to industry needs.

Why should I consider a Vocational Degree?

For international students, the Vocational Degree will offer a new pathway for gaining industry-relevant skills and knowledge. It will also enhance graduate employability in the Australian and global job market.
