Abstract:

This paper provides a brief commentary on the relative trend change and potential trajectories of Australia's vocational education and training (VET) sector compared with the higher education sector. This provides the necessary context for more detailed exploration of the multiple issues that lie at what might be described as the 'boundaries and connections' between these two components of the tertiary education sector.
