[vet-it] Cert III in IT

[Dan BUTLER]

Hi all, Dan Butler from Cranbourne SC here with a question or two that
somebody may be able to help me with.

We are introducing VET IT next year and enrolling the students in Cert III
IT.  We are going to squeeze the Cert III in over two years - is this
possible to do?

If so, to gain the Cert III what units do they need to complete?  The VCAA
VET IT booklet talks about a course for partial completion but we want the
students to do the full thing.

Do we enrol the kids in Cert III, do the 8 core units of the Cert II and
then do the 5 common core units of Cert III and then the chosen stream
units (we would do the applications stream)?

I've been given the job of designing the course and have been given little
assistance other than time release.  I've found a few resources that look
quite good but can't find much information on the admin/red tape side of
things.  Our RTO we are using is a bit hazy on the requirements as well.

Would greatly appreciate any advice.  Also, if there is anyone out there
who would be willing to allow me to visit for a chat, that would be
fantastic.

Thanks

Dan
