<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>I am aware that this is not the
right list for this discussion, but the issue is that if the students do a
course that is not loaded onto VASS the students will only get block credit recognition
and will not be able to sit the exam and get full recognition and an ATAR
score, etc. May not be an issue for some students but for others wanting an
ATAR score it is an issue.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black'>I'm
not quite sure what the query on this VET-IT issue is. The way I see it, the
ICA11 package is now available and the units in it should be the ones we
therefore plan for and present the content from. It is noticeable that some
units now have a 'C' designation on them and/or additional or more detailed
elements & performance criteria. Correspondingly the critical aspects and kk
/ks in some cases have also been upgraded by the new training package.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black'>Also
worth noting is that training.com.au now also contains word format
documents which makes the task of creating some assessment tools a real joy!
(modifying the pdf's was a pain!)<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the down side, VET-IT Cert III at this point will not be offered here after
2012 due to the LARGE range of other subject offerings more attractive to the
demographic of this region. BUT, I will try to change that thinking next

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'>Having just glanced though the new
training for VET IT (ICA11 – Certificate II and III Info, Digital Media

for the new training package. When it is going to be introduced by the VCAA and
what is the likely profile of the new course?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
