Accessing applied learning programs before senior secondary years
Principals/directors and secondary school careers practitioners and teachers
Advice is now available on how schools can integrate and access applied learning programs into existing Year 10 programs alongside the F–10 curriculum.
The advice includes access to applied learning in Year 10 programs through
VCE Vocational Major units,
Victorian Pathways Certificate units and VET units. It also includes examples of how schools have structured programs to deliver these to a range of students.
The 
Victorian Pathways Certificate suitability guidelines have been amended to provide clear advice about access to the VPC for pre-senior secondary students.

Principals/directors, please share this information with the relevant school staff and students.
