The Vocational Education and Training Student Visa is designed for students who intend to undertake a certificate I-IV (except ELICOS ), diploma, advanced diploma, vocational graduate certificate or a vocational graduate diploma.  We can arrange everything from school placement/enrollment to student visas, accommodation and airport pick up and in many instances you need not pay us a service fee. 

Australia's Vocational Education and Training (VET) system provides training to students, that is both practical, and career-oriented. Students can develop their own career path through a mix of study and practical work.
