A taste for learning: evaluating a pre-Community VCAL program

This report evaluates a pre-Community [Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning] VCAL ‘Taster’ course offered at the Brotherhood of St Laurence’s Frankston High Street Centre. The course engaged young people who were seriously disaffected with school education, and who were facing their transition to adulthood without having acquired important skills. It provided valuable literacy, numeracy, vocational and social skills tuition, as well as the experience these students needed to make judgments about continuing vocational or further education.
