Welcome to the Victorian Skills Commission

The Victorian Skills Commission (VSC) provides advice to Government on post compulsory education and training, provides funding for training and further education, regulates the apprenticeship and traineeship system, and supports the Local Learning and Employment Networks.

The VSC was established in July 2007 by the Education and Training Reform Act 2006. The VSC continues the work of the Victorian Learning and Employment Skills Commission, which operated between 2001 and 2007 under the Vocational Education and Training Act 1990.

At its 24 November 2011 meeting the VSC:

  • discussed in detail ‘The Victorian Training Market Quarterly Report, Q3 2011’;

  • noted an updated apprenticeship risk register and Apprenticeship Dashboard Report;
