Training packages were introduced into the vocational education and training (VET) sector in the mid 1990s. Developed by industry, training packages consist of a set of nationally endorsed standards, guidelines, and qualifications for training, recognising, and assessing skills. This publication presents an analysis of data on training package activity undertaken by VET students, including apprentices and trainees, in Australia throughout 2002. It also identifies major changes in activity from 1998 to 2002.
