The VETiS program is funded by the Queensland Government to give eligible students funding to complete one Certificate I or II level qualification while attending secondary school.

VETiS qualifications can be undertaken in Years 10, 11 and 12, and can count towards the Queensland Certificate of Education.

Every student that completes or discontinues a VET in Schools course must complete a Student Training and Employment Survey within 3 months

What is the eligibility criteria?

All Queensland secondary school students in Years 10, 11 and 12 can access VET within any recognised qualification across a range of industries in a school environment; however VET investment funding can only be used for those qualifications identified as employment stream qualifications.

Students who complete a Certificate II (or higher) qualification at school can access further government subsidised training after school e.g. Year 12 fee-free training and the Certificate 3 Guarantee Program.
