Transition advice: Plumbing, Civil Infrastructure and Construction Pathways
The following VCE VET (VE1) programs are available to schools in 2019:
- Plumbing – 22304VIC Certificate II in Plumbing (Pre-apprenticeship)
- Civil Infrastructure – RII20715 Certificate II in Civil Construction
- Building and Construction – CPC20211 Certificate II in Construction Pathways.
Students who commenced any of these programs in 2018 as a block credit (VFE) must transition to the new VCE VET (VE1) version to continue their studies in 2019.
All 2018 units of competency with an S result should be re-enrolled against the VCE VET (VE1) certificate, and an S result re-entered.
All new students commencing training in the programs in 2019 must enrol in the VCE VET (VE1) version of the program.
VCE VET Applied Language
Schools with enrolments in VE1 – 10297NAT Certificate II in Applied Language and 10661NAT Certificate III in Applied Language must ensure that the language of study is selected when enrolling students on VASS. Error messages will appear on the certificate eligibility report if the language of study is not selected from Stream B – VCE Language.
VCE VET Electrical Program
The 22261VIC Certificate II in Electrotechnology Studies will expire on Sunday 30 June 2019. Recently, the Certificate II in Electrotechnology Studies was reaccredited as 22499VIC Certificate II in Electrotechnology (Pre-vocational), with a start date of Monday 1 July 2019.
Due to the changes to the core units and the streamlining of the elective units of the current course 22261VIC, the revised course 22499VIC has been deemed not equivalent. Transition advice will be published on the
VCE VET Electrical Industry webpage shortly.
