VCE VET Sport and Recreation is a vocational education and training program available to Victorian senior secondary students, delivered by schools and registered training organisations under the VCAA VCE VET arrangements. It combines nationally recognised sport and recreation units of competency with the VCE, so students build industry-relevant skills while completing their secondary qualification. It suits students who enjoy practical, applied learning and are drawn to coaching, fitness, outdoor recreation, facility operations, event support or community sport, whether they intend to enter the workforce, pursue further VET study, or continue to university. Study typically blends theory with hands-on tasks: planning and delivering sessions, working with clients, following work health and safety procedures, handling equipment, and supporting competitions.
