Vocational education providers will be banned from offering laptops, cash, meals or prizes as inducements to students to sign up to courses they don’t need.
Member for Gippsland Darren Chester has welcomed today’s announcement by the Federal Government that it would crack down on rogue Vocational Education and Training (VET) organisations that are taking advantage of the VET FEE-HELP loan program.
“The very large majority of RTOs provide outstanding education to people who seek careers in areas like business, health, general education and trades,” Mr Chester said.
