Following the Productivity Commission’s attack last week, the Business Council of Australia (BCA) chief executive, Jennifer Westacott, has lambasted Australia’s universities, slamming their opposition to levelling the playing field and removing the distortions pushing students into universities over vocational education and training (VET). From The AFR:
Ms Westacott told a group of mainly vice-chancellors and deans at the University of New South Wales on Monday she was “disheartened” by the response to her calls for a “level playing field to remove distortions from VET and universities”.
