National Women's Vocational Education and Training Strategy.
Australian National Training Authority, Brisbane.
This document presents a strategy that sets a direction for governments, industry, and training providers to address women's needs consistently as a priority in policy making, planning, resourcing, implementing, and monitoring vocational education and training (VET). Section 1 is an overview of Australia's National Women's Vocational Education and Training Strategy, its framework, goal, and accountability. Section 2 discusses the context for the strategy and its purpose. Section 3 describes those involved: women, VET providers, industry, government, schools, Industry Training Advisory Bodies, and trade unions. Section 4 lists four outcomes of the strategy: increase in number of women completing VET programs; increased number of women with VET qualifications at all levels; women distributed more broadly across fields of study; and increased participation and improved outcomes for specific groups of women. Section 5 discusses outcome achievement through strategic intervention in seven focus areas: continuous improvement measures; training and staff development; competency standards, curriculum, and delivery; pathway planning; balanced representation; promotion; and research. Section 6 focuses on strategy implementation and provides an implementation framework that correlates organization with mechanism and role. Section 7 addresses how success will be determined. Key performance indicators are related to outcomes, and reporting processes are described. (YLB)
