The Endeavour Vocational Education and Training (VET) Award

The Endeavour Vocational Education and Training (VET) Award provides financial support for up to 2.5 years for international students from participating countries to undertake vocational education at a Diploma, Advanced Diploma or Associate Degree level in any field of study in Australia. English language training in Australia will also be provided when the English language results fall within the specified requirements outlined in the Applicant Guidelines. Vocational education and training provides occupational or work-related knowledge and skills.

• enable students from varied backgrounds to undertake study in Australia,
• further develop Award Holders’ knowledge and skills in their areas of expertise,
