Description
INTRODUCTION Tertiary education in Australia is split between higher education and vocational education. Higher education (HE) is managed at both federal and state level, and is primarily delivered via the university sector. Courses range from one year certificate and diploma level qualifications to masters and doctoral degrees. Vocational education (VE) is managed at the state or local level, and is provided though Technical and Further Education institutes (TAFE) as well as by a lane number of private registered training organisations. Qualifications awarded by TAFE have to be compliant with the Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF) requirements and traditionally have ranged from short, low-level certificate studies to advanced diplomas taking two or more years full time to complete.
