| HTML | The double helix of vocational education and training and regional development |
12 June 2008Vocational education and training (VET) has a role to play in
sustainable regional development. Through five regional case studies this research examines how well VET is tailoring supply to skill needs, how VET has become
more flexible to obtain a better match between demand and supply, and whether partnerships have been linked to whole-of-government frameworks in ways which
support sustainable regional development. The study concludes that successful relationships between VET and regional development require ongoing alignment
both ways. Comprehensive regional frameworks could facilitate this co-development between VET and regional development.
