Introduction Congratulations on your decision to complete a nationally recognised vocational course. This handbook has been written to provide students with important information about the VET programmes offered at Maryborough State High School as well as your rights and responsibilities as a VET student. Students should take the time to study this handbook carefully and ask their VET teacher if they are unsure of any details. Students should keep this handbook for reference throughout their enrolment. The contents of this handbook in many instances represent the key points of various VET Policies and Procedures developed by this School. Copies of full VET Policies and Procedures can be obtained via the Head of Department Student Performance. The VET quality framework All of the VET programmes offered by this School can lead to nationally recognised qualifications – a certificate, if all of the requirements of the qualification are completed, or a statement of attainment for those parts that are successfully completed (if the full qualification is not completed). This certificate/statement of attainment will be recognised in all eight States/Territories in Australia. This is because Australia now has a national qualifications framework called the VET Quality Framework (VQF). There are 16 different types of qualifications that can be obtained. These are shown in the diagram below. Those that are bolded are the ones where the opportunity exists to be either fully or partially completed through the VET programmes being undertaken at this School. AQF qualifications

1. Student selection, enrolment and induction/orientation procedures Students enrolled in the VET courses at this School participate in the same enrolment and selection processes as other students at the School. Where numbers are limited for VET subjects, selection will be based on interview and/or on the order in which enrolments were received. Before school commences, on the pupil free days at the start of the year the VET Teachers will induct all VET Students with this VET Student Handbook.
2. Course information, including content and vocational outcomes Course information, including qualification, course content, codes and vocational outcomes is contained in the Senior Learning Options Booklet. Additional information can be sought from your VET teacher or HOD Student Performance.
3. Fees and charges, including refund policy VET curriculum/subject levies are charged at a flat fee and details of each fee are outlined in the Senior Learning Options Booklet. Some VET subjects may attract additional fees depending on chosen consumables. Once a student commences a VET programme, no refunds of levies will be made for that particular term. Where levies have been paid for the whole year, a pro‐rata refund system will apply for terms in which the student has not commenced, but has paid levies.
4. Provision for language, literacy and numeracy assistance If you are undertaking a VET subject, which has embedded units of competency from a Training Package, you will find that basic literacy/numeracy elements have been incorporated. This should help you learn these basic literacy/numeracy components more readily, as they are being delivered/assessed in the context of an industry vocational area of your liking/choice. If you still feel you need additional language, literacy or numeracy support, please approach your teacher.
5. Flexible learning and assessment procedures The following represent the basic VET assessment principles of this School. They are designed to promote fairness and equity in assessment.
i. All VET students at this School will be fully informed of the VET assessment procedures and requirements and will have the right to appeal.
Students will be given clear and timely information on assessment. Information given to students, on the assessment cover sheet, will include:
Evidence gathering techniques
assessment procedures
the marking guide (second page)
Outcome and feedback Students will sight their profile sheet of results in each VET subject on at least two occasions throughout a 1 year course and four occasions on a two year course. The assessment approach chosen will cater for the language, literacy and numeracy needs of students.

G:\Coredata\Teachers\Vocational Education\VET Handbooks\v6_VET Student Hand Book.doc Page 8 of 30
Any special geographic, financial or social needs of students will be considered in the development and conduction of the assessment. Reasonable adjustment will be made to the assessment strategy to ensure equity for all students, while maintaining the integrity of the assessment outcomes. Opportunities for feedback and review of all aspects of assessment will be provided to students. A clearly documented mechanism for appeal against assessment processes and decisions is available to students in the School’s VQF Quality Manual. This is available from the HOD Student Performance. Your VET teacher will provide you with a thorough overview of the assessment requirements for your individual VET programme/s. The following information, however, represents some general information about the VET assessment process adopted at Maryborough State High School. Assessment methods Each VET Teacher will maintain a student profile for each student and on successful completion of the program the qualification will be awarded, based on the principles of assessment. Elements of competency will be assessed and recorded once the teacher is satisfied that a student has demonstrated consistent competency in an element or unit of competency. Students may also receive assessment if they apply for and meet the requirements for, Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL). A master record detailing students’ achievements of the units of competency is maintained at the School on the Senior Data Capture System. This will record all elements and units of competency achieved. This will be held by the School and will be issued to the student once they complete the program of study or within 21 days of exit. Competency based assessment Competencies studied at Maryborough State High School are part of accredited courses and National Training Packages. In order to be successful in gaining competency, students must demonstrate they have the necessary underpinning knowledge and can apply this in a practical way in a workplace setting to industry standard over a range of different contexts. In most subjects assessment tasks are completed a number of times throughout the year. Results for each assessment item will be marked on a subject profile sheet or similar document. This assists students to become competent as their skills improve. Assessment of competencies will be deemed as: TC for Towards Competency, C for Competent or NYC for Not Yet Competent (or similar). What does it mean to be competent? People are considered to be competent when they are able to apply their knowledge and skills to complete work activities successfully in a range of situations and environments, in accordance with the standard of performance expected in the work place. This means that when a student demonstrates a competency they will not just demonstrate they can do a task on their own, but must be able to demonstrate they can do it in a range of different circumstances, as outlined above.

RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning) the acknowledgement of the skills and knowledge a person has acquired through previous training, work or life experience, which may be used to grant status or credit in a subject or module. Credit transfer refers to the granting of credit to students for subjects, modules or units of competency they have completed previously. Institutions or training organisations can grant credit to students for studies or training completed at the same or another institution or training organisation. If a student believes that they fulfill these requirements they should approach their teacher first, who will bring it to the attention of the HOD. At the beginning of each course, the VET Teacher will be responsible for ensuring that the students are informed of the Recognition of Prior Learning and Credit Transfer procedures. RPL information and forms can be obtained from the VET Teacher or HOD. Recognition of Prior Learning policy All students shall have access to, and will be offered, Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL). Recognition of Prior Learning procedure Each year, the teacher will make students aware of the School’s RPL policy via the VET Student Handbook and Induction. Teachers will remind students of this policy at the beginning of each new semester and provide opportunities to engage in the RPL process. When approached by a student seeking RPL, teachers will:
provide the student with copies of an RPL Student Application Form
provide the student with information about the types of evidence that can be used to support an RPL application
make a prompt decision and notify students of the outcome of the RPL process
update the student’s records, if RPL is granted
students can appeal a decision via the RPL Student Appeals Form
11. Recognition of AQF Qualifications and Statements of Attainment issued by another RTO Recognition of qualifications policy The School will recognise all AQF qualifications issued by any other RTO. The School will seek verification of the certification from the relevant RTO where there is some ambiguity. Recognition of qualifications procedure Each year, the teacher shall make students aware that any existing AQF qualifications or statements of attainment they possess will be recognised by the School. Teachers will remind students of this policy at the beginning of each new semester. If a student presents an AQF qualification or statement to the teacher, the teacher will take a copy and bring it to the attention of the relevant Head of Department. The Head of Department will verify the authenticity of the qualification or statement. The verified copy of the qualification or statement is placed in the student’s file. Once the qualification or statement is verified, the teacher will give the student exemption for the units of competency or modules identified in the qualification or statement and update the student’s records accordingly.
