Why participate in Vocational Education and Training (VET)?
VET courses develop your skills and get you ready for work through practical learning. VET can also lead to further education and training. VET courses range from Certificate I qualifications to Advanced Diplomas.
When you study VET, you can leave school with:
- a statement of attainment (when you complete one or more units)
- qualification/s and a record of results (when you meet all requirements).
VET courses may contribute up to 8 credits per course towards your QCE.One VET course at Certificate III level or higher, when combined with four General subjects, may also contribute to your ATAR.If you're interested in studying VET, talk to the HOD Global & Vocational Learning at Springfield Central SHS.
USI
All students completing a VET Couse require a Unique Student Identifier (USI).
What is a USI?
The USI is a reference number made up of ten numbers and letters that:
- creates a secure online record of your recognised training and qualifications gained in Australia, from all training providers you undertake recognised training with
- will give you access to your training records and transcripts
- can be accessed online, anytime and anywhere
- is free and easy to create and stays with you for life.
USIs are generated on the
www.USI.gov.au website. Students will require Identification to complete the process e.g. Medicare card or birth certificate.

We always endeavour to keep our course offering fair, equitable and industry current and therefore seek feedback willingly.
All feedback can be given to course trainers, the Head of Department of the curriculum area or the Head of Department Languages, International and Vocational Education. Every year students will be asked to complete a feedback survey. We ask that this survey is completed thoughtfully and honestly so that we can use this feedback and continually improve.
