"VET can be the spark—not just the step.” 🎇
🎓 As a proud partner of National Skills Week 2025, UQ Skills is Reframing the Future of Pathways -- challenging the old idea that Vocational Education & Training (VET) is just a step toward university.
As UQ Skills Director, Dane Ivicevic puts it: "It’s important to reframe VET beyond pathways and credit transfer… because VET isn`t just about where you go next, it`s about who you become along the way."
From building confidence and aspiration to equipping learners with real-world skills, VET opens doors in many directions... not just toward further study, but toward identity, purpose and success.
