MEET JOSH CHARUBIN:
WODONGA TAFE STUDENT
“During high school I was having trouble with my studies. I had heard

“It was the best decision of my life, the learning environment really
helped me and my VCAL teacher was so supportive and encouraging.”

Josh followed the pathway opportunity from VCAL directly into his

study one of the priority courses at TAFE.

                                                                   www.wodongatafe.edu.au/freetafe

PATHWAY
    OPTIONS FROM SECONDARY
    SCHOOL TO TAFE

    Did you know that there are direct pathways
    from your senior secondary school studies into a
    course at Wodonga TAFE?
    Undertaking a Vocational Education and Training (VET) course while at secondary school
    provides you with the valuable learning and experience that can lead to employment and further
    study post year 12. Students who have successfully completed a VET course whilst at school may
    be eligible for credit and can shorten the length of their studies at Wodonga TAFE.

    Some examples of the type of VET training you can do during your secondary school studies are:

    •   You can be a year 12 school leaver and go directly into a Certificate II or above course
    •   You can be a VET in Schools student at your secondary school and head directly into the
        related TAFE course upon graduation
    •   If you are a VCAL student, you can start your training journey within secondary school and
        may be able to gain credit into a related course upon graduation
    •   For secondary school students aged 15 and over, you can undertake a school-based
        apprenticeship or traineeship during your secondary school studies which incorporates 1 full
        day of paid work placement per week. Upon graduation you can move into TAFE studies to
    •   continue on in your chosen trade (or similar) and complete the full trade qualification
    •   You can partake in a pre-apprenticeship course within your secondary school studies as part
        of your VCE or VCAL program and upon graduation can transition into a Certificate II or IV
        qualification at TAFE, either in the same field or something similar

    See table for a comprehensive list of courses you can enrol in while still completing your
    secondary school qualification, as well as the courses it can lead to at Wodonga TAFE upon graduation.
