VCE VET Business case studies
VCE VET Business · Put your knowledge to work in context.
VCE VET Business is a vocational education and training program delivered within the Victorian Certificate of Education and administered in Victoria by the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority (VCAA). It suits senior secondary students who want to combine general VCE studies with industry-focused business learning, building practical skills in areas such as workplace communication, financial records, customer service and small business operations. Because VET programs are drawn from nationally recognised training packages, students typically complete units of competency alongside their VCE studies, and some students may receive credit towards a nationally recognised qualification depending on the program and their training provider. Assessment in VCE VET programs generally combines coursework completed at school or with a registered training provider with scored assessment tasks, and the VCAA publishes separate material covering VET scored assessment and VET examinations and reports. The VCE VET Business case studies are 5 cases and about 2,417 words.
