VET in Schools
Students are encouraged to undertake ‘VET in Schools’ Qualifications concurrently with the BEd (TAS) to enhance their employment opportunities. Students would be responsible for accessing these courses through a Registered Training Organisation (RTO) such as TAFE or similar training providers. This would be optional study and any associated costs would be the responsibility of the student.

Possible VET in Schools areas include:

Industrial Technology related VET area requirements:
Certificate ll in Engineering (Production Technology) and Certificate lV in Training and Assessment and related industry experience and/or Certificate 1 in Construction and Certificate ll in Construction Pathways and Certificate lV in Training and Assessment and related industry experience. There is the opportunity to include the 70 hours of work placement in a related industry as part of EEB106 Community Cultural Education.

Food Technology related VET area requirements:
Certificate II in Hospitality (Kitchen Operations) and Certificate lV in Training and Assessment and and related industry experience. There is the opportunity to include the 70 hours of work placement in a related industry as part of EEB106 Community Cultural Education.

Agricultural Technology related VET area requirements:
Certificate ll in Agriculture or Certificate ll in Horticulture and Certificate lV in Training and Assessment and related industry experience. There is the opportunity to include the 70 hours of work placement in a related industry as part of EEB106 Community Cultural Education.

Information Technology related VET area requirements:
Certificate lll in Information, Digital Media & Technology and Certificate lV in Training and Assessment and related industry experience. There is the opportunity to include the 70 hours of work placement in a related industry as part of EEB106 Community Cultural Education.

Cross-Institutional Studies with Southern Cross University

Credit arrangements have been organised with Southern Cross University (SCU) to provide eight discipline subjects. Students will enrol in these subjects as cross-institutional enrolments and the workshop components will be delivered on the CSU Wagga campus as Residential School blocks of study.

This credit will be represented on student transcripts via the following credit package codes:

* EPI14C Timber/Metal Production - 32 credit points - this covers completion of four SCU subjects, namely:

- DES106 1 Timber Design and Production; DES106 2 Metal Design and Production; DES106 3 Timber Industry Practice and Management; DES106 4 Metal Industry Practice and Management.

** EMT11C Design & Technologies - 8 credit points - this covers completion of one SCU subject, namely:

- DES106 4 Design & Technology: Essential Technologies

*** TXT03C Textiles and Design - 24 credit points - this covers completion of three SCU subjects, namely:

- DES106 3 Textiles Science & Innovation; DES106 1 Textiles & Design; DES106 2 Textiles & Society

Enrolment pattern

** Please note: Where a credit code (e.g. EMT11C Design & Technologies and/or EPI4C Timber/Metal Production and/or TXT03C Textiles & Design) is noted in the enrolment pattern this indicates that the student will enrol in a subject through Southern Cross University (SCU). The subject selected will be as specified in the arrangements for that credit package, and as approved by the Course Director. Credit will be ungraded and represented as Transfer Credit (TCR).
