WHERE IS THE TRAINING DELIVERED?

Online or On-site

PEER has recently implemented remotely delivered training to our VET in Schools students. The introduction of remote learning provides students with greater flexibility to complete theory components of their learning.

Each remote learning class is led by a dedicated trainer who supports and coaches students remotely, with practical components conducted later in the year. Students are invited to join a class via Microsoft Teams and connect with their trainer. Trainers will be available online to answer questions and support students through their learning.

Watch this short video below to learn more about how PEER delivers remote training.

FAQS

WHAT IS VET for School Students (VSS) FUNDING?

TGSS has been replaced with VET for School Students (or VSS) for school students commencing next year in subsidised courses – VSS is a funding catchall for either institutional delivery or school based apprenticeships/traineeships. School Students may receive vocational education and training (VET) while they’re at school and continue it after they leave.

Through VSS, the South Australian Government offers subsidised training with a Training Provider like PEER for selected SACE students who are turning 16 within the year of training or older.
