| Abstract | This technical and vocational education (TVE) profile on Australia is one in a series of profiles of UNESCO member countries. It is intended to be a handy reference on TVE systems, staff development, technical cooperation, and information networking. Chapter 1 describes the demography, government, and economy of Australia. Chapter 2 provides information on its educational systems. Chapter 3 deals specifically with TVE. It lists addresses of responsible authorities for states/territories, summarizes statistics, and describes a typical vocational education progression. Chapter 4 summarizes results of a client opinion survey. Chapter 5 sets forth the training reform agenda. Chapter 6 provides descriptions of relevant major national organizations. Publications that provide up-to-date information are listed in a final chapter. Some of the highlights are as follows: (1) states/territories carry most of the responsibility for primary and secondary education and tertiary vocational education, whereas universities are almost entirely funded by the Commonwealth; (2) technical and further education (TAFE) is increasingly being regarded as an equivalent alternative to university; (3) a survey of 25,000 students showed extremely high satisfaction with TAFE, lecturers, and equity goals; and (4) the national training reform agenda has five elements--competency-based training, national recognition arrangements, an open training market, a new entry-level training system, and equity provision.
