Vocational Education and Training

Mr PISONI (Unley) (14:42): The question was specifically about cert. III. Could you confirm whether those who are studying cert. I and II this year will be able to continue with the cert. III component next year under the funded plan?

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for the Public Sector) (14:42): Provided that the course that they are studying is the high public value course, they will be able to continue to do that for free. Some examples I have are Certificate III in Aged Care, Certificate III in Agriculture and Certificate III in Rural Operations.
