Re the readings, suggest you read Foundations for the Future (Skills Australia) from Section 5. you may find the Investing Wisely Report of interest as well. An update of Michaela Kronemann Trends in VET Funding makes some sense of where we are at with VET funding in an historical context.
Re the Parrallel Implementation Research – please bring on Thursday a soft and hard copy x25 of any research findings.
