Vocational Education and Training Delivered to School Students is an important component of our students’ educational journey. VETDSS Value (hours) are a VCAL requirement. These are gained by completing Units of Competency within a chosen course.
Students will need a minimum VETDSS value score to pass their VCAL levels. VETDSS gives students an opportunity to complete a Certificate II Qualification in their chosen course.

We deliver on site courses across our four campuses to provide students with the experience of participating in TAFE level courses, along with wellbeing and other additional supports provided by the Hester Hornbrook Academy team.
All courses are taught by qualified teacher/trainers who are registered with the Victorian Institute of Teaching (VIT).
Students who meet the criteria may be given an option to attend an external VETDSS course. This is available to students who have a specific vocational interest in a course we do not provide onsite.
