This book coincides with the release of the policy recommendations on post-school education and training by government and higher education stakeholders. In a number of cases the authors featured in this publication were involved in developing the policies mentioned above, resulting in a certain amount of ‘cross referencing’. However, the book is not a systematic attempt to address the various policy positions, although many of the chapters address, directly or indirectly, some of the policy issues raised (particularly those in the Green Paper for Post-School Education and Training).
