Vocational education and training (VET) 2005: a discussion paper on the roles and competencies of the VET teacher in the year 2005

Towards the end of 1995 the Staff Training and Development Division of TAFE NSW commissioned Barbara Lepani to prepare a discussion paper on 'Vocational Education and Training - 2005' that would explore the future roles and competencies of the vocational education and training (VET) teacher. This discussion paper's aim was to find answers to the following four questions: (1) what will be the main forces and market demands that will influence the shaping of the VET industry in 2005?; (2) what products and services will the VET sector need to produce, and how will they be delivered in order to satisfy customer needs?; (3) how will these forces and services broaden and change the role of VET providers and teachers specifically?; and (4) what capabilities (skills and competencies) will characterise the profile of the future VET practitioner/trainer?
