VICTORIAN CERTIFICATE OF EDUCATION (VCE)

The Victorian Certificate of Education is generally a two-year course. Most students will study 12 units at Year 11 and ten units at Year 12. One unit is equal to a semester. English is the only compulsory subject.

Year 10 students choosing their Year 11 course should see that course as part of a two-year plan.
