External Vocational Education and Training (VET)

It is important that students and parents understand that if a student chooses to participate in an external VET program, the student will miss classes at MSC. It is a condition of participation that the student keeps up to date with all aspects of his/her program of study. VET programs count as a course/unit equivalent towards WACE and participating students may be allowed to reduce their course load to give them the greatest opportunity to succeed.

PLEASE NOTE that the College (Tracey Loughnan) needs to be informed of the intention to apply for any of the courses listed below. This can be done at the enrolment interview.

Both North Metro TAFE and South Metro TAFE offer a range of courses with entry to all courses being highly competitive. Please take note of the campus location as many of the SMTAFE courses require substantial travel.

NORTH METRO TAFE: Please open the links and carefully refer to the instructions. No fee required for most courses. Closing date is August 31^st 2020.
