[vet-mm] Request for information

Fri May 2 16:17:13 EST 2008

Agreed, Kevork, however keep in mind for accuracy sake that the new Training
Package CUF07 has been endorsed (as I understand it) and it is the VCE VCAA
Program Guide that is being revised. Worth also including perhaps that
continuing students will complete the qualification under the old training
package.

Kind regards

Hi Allan,

Thanks for all this work and your readiness to share.

I was aware of the new package being under consideration. I guess the 
problem for me was the experience of the VET IT review in which I was a 
panel member.

The final shape of the VET course was a partial Certificate III as VET IT 
units 1 - 4 ( cf. a full Cert III in the previous version ) and this was 
only a selection of units of competence from the Training Package. So some 
units were included, others were left out which would have been almost 
impossible to know before the review.
I am guessing the VET Multimedia may have similar treatment and so it will 
be hard to know what to write as the form, composition and names of 
Certificates ( partial or full ), amount of VCE credits, and what electives 
if any will be available.

Ultimately we may need to write something like the following for the 
handbook :
"At the time of writing the Film, Television, Radio and Multimedia Training 
Package is under review. Once the new package is endorsed, a revised VCE VET

program will be developed ready for implementation in 2009. Students will be

advised regarding the details of the new Certificates, equivalent VCE unit 
credits etc once these are published by the VCAA"

Hope this makes sense

Thanks once again
