VETiS
Vocational Education and Training in Schools
VETiS programs are training programs with a particular job or vocational focus and are designed to lead to further education, training or
direct entry into the workforce. VETiS contributes to both the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) offered at St Paul’s and the Victorian
Certificate of Applied Learning (VCAL), not offered at St Paul’s. Students have the opportunity to enrol in a VETiS program and have it
count towards their studies. VETiS programs consist of a set of work skills called Units of Competencies (UoCs) and students who
successfully achieve competencies in a VETiS program receive a nationally recognised Certificate or Statement of Attainment.
VETiS programs enable students to complete a nationally recognised vocational qualification as well as it being part of their VCE program.
St Paul’s delivers two VETiS programs as part of the school timetable. CISCO is auspiced to Chisholm Institute and Sport and Recreation
is auspiced to IVET, as the RTOs. Both of these programs are taught at School by St Paul’s qualified staff.

Complaints and Appeals Policy*
Students are encouraged to contact the VETiS Coordinator for important policies, procedures and statements.

General Information
All students who wish to enrol in a VETiS program must fill in an application form during course counselling. In addition, students may
be required to attend a meeting or interview with a representative of the Training Provider.
VETiS programs have limited enrolment numbers and acceptance will be based on a number of factors including the student’s written
application, teacher recommendation and deposit – to be advised (fully refundable if the student leaves or does not attend more
than three weeks at the start of the course – specific dates will be advertised, by the training provider).
VETiS programs involve delivery costs approximately between $2200 and $2900 plus per student per year. In addition students may
be required to pay other costs applicable to their program once accepted. (This will be outlined prior to students beginning their
courses). St Paul's Anglican Grammar School has a commitment in providing students access to VETiS programs, however it is a
user pay system where the total costs of the course are added to student’s school fees. Students withdrawing from the course
after the first three weeks will incur the full costs associated with the program for that year.
Students are required to organise their own transport to and from their VETiS programs that are not delivered by St Paul's Anglican
Grammar School. Parents are encouraged to organise car-pooling for programs that have an early start time.
Attendance at all scheduled VETiS classes is compulsory. Absence due to illness should be reported to the VETiS provider and St
Paul's Anglican Grammar School as soon as possible, before or on the day of absence. Attendance reports are sent to St
Paul’s Anglican Grammar School weekly and are monitored accordingly.
Students who have already completed their first year of training must indicate their intention to continue for their second year during
their course counselling session. This will ensure that their second year enrolment is processed; students who fail to follow this process
may find their enrolment in VETiS will be withdrawn.
Students may be required to undertake structured workplace learning in order to complete their VETiS program. This workplace
learning is usually carried out one day per week with an employer and is organised by the training provider or St Paul's Anglican
Grammar School. Students are expected to integrate their work placement and VCE studies.

GRIEVANCE POLICY
A grievance may arise if you believe that an incorrect decision or inappropriate behaviour has adversely affected your rights. Informal appeal process You should first try to achieve resolution of any grievance (academic and nonacademic) through an informal approach to the staff member or person responsible for the action. Alternatively, you can provide feedback to the RTO by completing an ‘Air Your View’ form available from the RTO.
Formal appeal process If you have been unable to resolve your grievance through an informal process, you have the right to submit a written complaint to the Registered Training Organisation Manager. The RTO Manager will notify the relevant staff member (or supervisor) of the grievance and, depending on the nature of the complaint, will decide on appropriate action to resolve the grievance. The RTO Manager will respond to you within seven days of receiving your written complaint.
Non-academic appeals If you consider the response to a disciplinary or misconduct decision is unsatisfactory you have the right to appeal to the RTO Grievance Panel. A date for the RTO Grievance Panel meeting will be set as quickly as possible and you will be notified of the time, date and venue in writing. If required, the Institute will provide an interpreter to assist you during the meeting.
You have the right to be accompanied by a representative and you may call witnesses, or you can provide a written submission instead of attending the meeting. You can ask the School Counselor to support you through this process.
If you do not attend the meeting or provide a written submission, the panel may assess the matter and, where necessary, impose a penalty as if you had participated. The panel will advise you in writing of the decision within two working days of the date of the decision. The decision of the RTO Grievance Panel shall be final. Note: If you are an apprentice or a trainee, your appeal must be lodged in accordance with the Vocational Education, Training and Employment Act 2000.
Academic appeals If you decide to appeal your final result of assessment, you will need to retain all your assessment pieces and return them to the Institute within the appeal period. The RTO appeal period is 28 days from the Result of Assessment being issued / leaving the Institute. If you consider that the response to an academic decision is unsatisfactory, you have the right to appeal to the Principal of St Paul's Anglican Grammar School. The Academic Appeals Committee shall:
Review the circumstances of a dispute or question relating to the academic processes or procedures adopted in arriving at,
or reaching, an academic decision and shall make a determination in the matter.
Give the student notice in writing not less than five days before the date of the hearing of the time and place of the hearing.
Have the Chairperson at any meeting ensure a recording is kept of the proceedings at that meeting, containing a fair summary of the evidence submitted to, or obtained by, the committee and such other minutes of its proceedings as will fairly show the manner in which it conducted the inquiry.
Immediately after reaching its decision, communicate that decision to the Institute Director and the student.
The Academic Appeals Committee consists of:
RTO Manager, Trainer, Director of Studies
