Exploring locality : the impact of context on Indigenous vocational education and training aspirations and outcomes

Analyses the extent to which urban, regional and remote settings in South Australia impact upon the outcomes of Indigenous learners in the vocational education and training (VET) program; considers factors specific to each setting, the extent to which participants continue with further study, and how participation in the VET program contributes to employment; concludes that significant differences in opportunities for employment, work experience and choice of accredited study programs can be found between different localities; recommends that strategies for addressing improved outcomes consider the local context of each VET program.
