When you enter the VET sector as a trainer, you discover the many facets of the industry and refine your skills. You will set new goals in your chosen profession as a trainer and eventually set out to grow to the next level or have your current competence recognised. This is where the TAE50116 Diploma of Vocational Education and Training (Diploma of VET) and the TAE50216 Diploma of Training Design and Development (Diploma of TDD) will help you achieve this.
Often people ask what is a difference between the two qualifications.
