Vocational education and training

An Endeavour Vocational Education and Training (VET) Award enables you
to study a vocational course at the Diploma, Advanced Diploma or
Associate Degree level in any field of study in Australia.

Vocational education and training provides occupational or work-related
knowledge and skills.  The courses are directly related to the trade,
occupation or `vocation’ in which you participate and exclude
degree and higher level programs normally delivered by universities.

Professional Development

Endeavour Executive Awards
<http://www.endeavou r.deewr.gov. au/international _applicants/ executive_ awards.htm>
provide professional development opportunities for high
achievers in business, industry, education or government from
participating countries.

This award provides you with the flexibility to design a program that
advances both your professional and personal goals.  In consultation
with your host organisation, the one to four month program may include
activities such as a shadowing program, work placement, attendance at a
conference, participation in a short course, or peer-to-peer learning.

Student Exchanges

The Australian Government recognises the many enduring benefits of
international exchanges undertaken during the years of undergraduate
education.  To encourage greater student mobility, the Australian
Government funds Australian higher education providers to subsidise the
costs to students participating in student exchanges which include
tuition fee waiver and credit transfer.

Only Australian higher education providers are eligible to apply for
funding for international student exchange programmes.

Students (Australian and international) wishing to apply for student
subsidies available under these international student exchange
programmes should contact the International Office of their institution.
