- Ministerial statement on an autonomous college network for Western Australia
-
The Review of Education and Training (Vickery Report), released in July 1993, proposed a new structure to introduce a more efficient, flexible, and responsive education and training system. Most of the proposals from this have been acted upon, however, the proposal to establish a network of 'autonomous colleges' to replace the existing TAFE and Independent Colleges required further consideration. This report discusses the establishment and functions of the autonomous college. It then looks at the functions and duties, powers and membership of the college councils and the employment of staff and human resource management involved.The training system will be more complex and the management of the strategic plan, policy framework, resource acquisition and allocation, performance monitoring and quality assurance systems is looked at in depth. Finally the provider level functions and responsibilities such as strategic and operational planning, resource allocation, training delivery, performance monitoring and quality improvement are discussed.

The purpose of the review was to advise the Minister for Education, Employment and Training on the best way of configuring the various agencies within the education and training portfolio to provide a higher quality and more effective service for students, parents, industry and the community. The review committee considered the functions of each of the 12 agencies reporting directly to the Minister in relation to school education, training and higher education. The committee sought information and views from the agencies and consulted widely with individuals and organisations within Western Australia and other states. The Committee adopted a set of principles as benchmarks against which decisions about the education and training system might be made. The report makes 54 recommendations including the amalgamation of the central functions of the Department of Employment, Vocational Education and Training and the State Employment and Skills Development Authority, the establishment of autonomous TAFE Colleges and the creation of the Western Australian Schools Council.
