The year 2024 has brought significant challenges and uncertainty to the vocational education and training (VET) sector, largely driven by the Government’s proposed reforms. These changes have sparked widespread discussion and concern across the sector, particularly with the public consultation period ending in mid-September. While we had hoped to hear the Minister’s final plan before Christmas, it is our understanding that the announcement has now been delayed until 2025, deepening the sense of uncertainty for many involved in the VET sector. It is our hope that in the early part of the New Year, we will finally receive clarity on the direction of these reforms.
