Shifting mindsets: The changing work roles of vocational education and training practitioners

Vocational education and training (VET) practitioners have been subject to unparalleled change in the past ten years. Building on previous work (Harris et al. 2001), this project set out to explore how the changing environment is impacting on practitioners' work and the implications these changes have for the quality of VET provision and the role of the new VET professionals. This report argues practitioners are generally positive about the changes with private providers being more positive than those in the public sector.
