To find out more about creative arts courses visit What is VET in the VCE? VET stands for Vocational Education and Training, and vocation refers to work or employment. VET in the VCE programs are designed to give students an exposure to practical skills and an understanding of what it is like to ‘learn through doing’. So, students can opt to do a VET subject while completing their VCE and, in most cases, the VET qualification contributes towards the VCE and the ATAR. Visit Viewbank College is a member of the Northern Melbourne VET Cluster (NMVC). This large grouping of schools offers through a number of host schools a large range of VET subjects that represent Year 11 and Year 12 studies. The 2016 NMVC Handbook is now available for students to collect from the Careers Room.
