This report showcases the results of the Australian National Training Authority Research Advisory Committee (ANTARAC) project by describing five approaches taken by the VET team on the impact of research on VET decision-making. It shows that research has affected decision-making, but not in the way that people think. The great value of research is in building the climate of opinion which can, in turn, assist the decision-making process.
In vocational education and training (VET), user choice is a means of achieving a more client-responsive training system by allowing individual clients to have a greater choice over how their training needs are met. The flow of public VET funds to individual training providers will reflect the choices made by the client. Currently, user choice is limited to New Apprenticeships, but it could apply broadly across the training system.
