Description

In 1999, the Australian VET sector developed a five-year strategic plan, Flexible Learning for the Information Economy: A Framework for National Collaboration in Vocational Education and Training 2000-2004. Known commonly as the Collaborative Framework, the plan is a fluid platform upon which the Australian VET sector can strategically plan for the use and expansion of learning technologies in training and industry. This paper will explore the Collaborative Framework not only as an integrated policy response to the emergence of new learning technologies, but also as a model of collaboration between governments and a bold experiment in cultural change within the VET sector.
