Abstract
The technical and further education (TAFE) sector was created in 1974 to provide initial vocational training and to redress the disadvantaging impact of class and poverty. By the early 1990s, national training reform inspired by a deregulatory and economic rationalist agenda created a training market which transformed TAFE into VET (vocational education and training). This article highlights the move in national policy sentiments which redirected TAFE away from social justice to industry provision. It focuses on Victoria, where national and state trends forced TAFE into a competitive environment and sidelined social justice.
