Identification of Issues that Impact Upon the Provision of Effective Career Development Services for VET Learners

Résumé du livre

This paper examines the role of career development services in the light of recent reports by Skills Australia and the last federal budget. While recognising that career development services are required across all age groups and in all sectors of education, both Skills Australia and the budget have placed a particular emphasis on the role of vocational education and training (VET) as one of the agents of improved productivity and both social and economic change. The paper draws upon the most recent research and policy both in Australia and internationally. - p. 4.
