Abstract
This article addresses four specific aspects of research into vocational education and training in Australia which were included in a book published in mid-2001 by the National Centre for Vocational Education Research: the changing skill requirements of Australian industry, modelling industry's demand for vocational education and training, enterprise accounting for skills (since whether an enterprise perceives its training expenditures as a cost, or as an investment, influences its decisions about how much training to undertake, of what kinds, and for whom) and provision of vocational education and training in secondary schools, considering especially the significant features of the various approaches, the profiles of participating students (and their destinations) and the costs involved. The article identifies some implications of the research for those concerned with career development in Australia.
