VET stands for Vocational Education and Training. A VET course is a program of study that allows people to gain workplace skills and technical knowledge, emphasising hands-on experience. This differs slightly from university degrees, which often have a more theoretical focus. Compared to university degrees, VET courses constitute lower qualifications, with a Diploma being the highest at AQF Level 5, whereas university degrees go up to AQF Level 10 (as is the case of a PhD), with an AQF Level 10 qualification being the highest level of education that a person can receive.

Studying a VET course can be useful if a person wishes to start a skill-based career, such as a plumber or electrician. People may also use a VET qualification to gain entry to a university degree.

On the other hand, TAFE is an educational institution that provides VET courses. However, TAFE is not the only VET course provider. Other VET course providers include schools and registered training organisations. Further, despite TAFE being primarily associated with VET courses, it does not only provide VET courses. TAFE provides a number of Bachelor degrees similar to universities. Examples of Bachelor degrees that can be studied at TAFE include:
  • Bachelor of Business
  • Bachelor of Information Technology (Cyber and Network Security)
  • Bachelor of Early Childhood Education and Care (Birth-5)
I hope this helps! :D
