The Department of TAFE was abolished on December 31, 1991. From January 1, 1992 the Departments of TAFE and Employment and Training have merged to form the new Department of Employment, Vocational Education and Training (DEVET). This final annual report from July 1 to December 31 1991 includes the general and financial information for the Department of TAFE, which has a program structure for management of its activities including: (1) skills formation, providing courses for trade, para-professional, fee-for-services training, traineeships and special training and support for disadvantaged groups; (2) community adult education, providing a range of cultural and recreational courses to suit local needs; and (3) policy, research and evaluation support for the efficient and effective delivery of TAFE programs.
Included in the report are the overall organisational structure and scope of operations, illustrated by various graphs, charts and maps, as well as individual reports for each area of the organisation and their initiatives and activities.
The Western Australian Vision of Excellence (WAVE) strategy was a combined effort of the Departments of TAFE and Employment and Training, Ministry of Education and Office of Higher Education, whose objectives were to provide 1991 school leavers with increased options and assistance.
