Leadership within education is always a challenge, but in the rapidly changing technology landscape we now work in, it seems even more daunting. I've collected some interesting reflections on educational leadership here. Enjoy!
Professor Michael Sankey from Charles Darwin University examines some of the emerging trends that will influence the Higher Education and Vocational Education sectors over the next while, but particularly in 2023.
Government investment in vocational education and training has slumped to its lowest level in a decade, despite anticipated growth in employment in the sector.
The ACCC is unlikely to pocket its record penalty against a defunct training college, but it says its Federal Court win is important for the message it sends and because the debts of affected students will be cancelled.
Most Indigenous art works are produced in around 90 Indigenous art centres located in very remote regions. But there are staff and management issues, which can be solved by better VET programs.
A flawed vocational training system is letting down Australia at a critical time for skills. Two University of Melbourne experts have a simple plan to fix it.
We already have all the research reports, reviews and inquiries we need to make reform to the VET sector happen. What we need is proactive leadership and action.
New analysis of education expenditure shows spending on the vocational education and training sector has declined while other sectors have experienced growth.

This glossary is a compilation of Australian vocational education and training (VET) terms and acronyms. It includes both current and historical terms, concepts, acronyms and other abbreviations found in Australian VET research, policy and data.
Information about policy initiatives and programs, government departments, COAG Ministerial Councils and their committees and advisory bodies, and organisations and resources previously available in the glossary can now be accessed from within other sections of the VET Knowledge Bank.

VET student outcomes 2019 presents information on the outcomes of students who completed their vocational education and training (VET) in Australia during 2018. The figures are derived from the National Student Outcomes Survey, which is an annual survey of students who were awarded a qualification (graduates), or who completed at least one subject and left the VET system without obtaining a qualification (subject completers). Summary information is presented on students’ reason for training, employment outcomes, satisfaction with training and further study outcomes. Data on the main reason for not continuing with the training are available for subject completers.
