Vocational Education
Part 1
(A passage from the article.)
As well as academic subjects improve students' minds and prepare them for college, a lot of high schools in the United States offer vocational courses. These prepare students for particular jobs. At different high schools in California, students can learn how to become cooks and waiters in hotels and restaurants or mechanics and salespeople in garages and service stations. The courses are available to high school students during the day as part of their normal school program. In the evenings they are also available to other people, who are not at school. Gene Abbott runs a course in automotive repair at San Rafael High School. He teachers his students how to repair cars. He gives some lessons in a classroom, but most of the course takes place in the workshop. It's a practical course, so students learn by doing as well by studying.

Australia Plans Big Expansion in Vocational Training
By GEOFFREY MASLEN
MELBOURNE
The Australian government will spend $750-minion (U.S.) over the next three years on post secondary education and (raining programs 10 create an extra 120.000 places for students
The plan was announced by the Prime Minister, Paul Healing, as part of an ambitious $1.7 billion spending package to try to revive the nation's ailing economy.
Mr. Keating said Inc federal government would lake over full financing of "technical and further education"—known here as TAFE —from the states to create an expanded system of vocational-education institutes. The plan represents a shift in government emphasis away from higher education to what the Prime Minister called "the weak reed" of technical and vocational training.
Australia's tape system is the larger of (he two post secondary education sectors and now enrolls nearly a million students. It provides para-professional, technical and technological diplomas and certificates. But TAFE- colleges are a stale responsibility, and they have been left behind in the huge expansion of the federally supported higher-education system over the past 10 years.
Mr. Keating said the federal government would allocate more than $525-million between 1993 to 1995 to upgrade the technical and further education system and insure a sustained increase in students’ participation. An immediate infusion of about $30-million would create an additional 10.000 vocational-training places starting in July.
Severe Overcrowding
An extra Sl5-million would be allocated to new construction at universities over the next 12 months to be matched by $20-million from the institutions themselves. Most universities experienced severe overcrowding last year and have had to cut back on enrollment this year despite a huge surge in student demand.
Under the new plans, state and territory governments will retain responsibility for TAFE management and administration, while the federal government will take over the control and functional support for the sector.
