Outbound mobility best practice guide
In 2007 the Queensland Government led Australia in the development of research on the barriers to mobility for the vocational education and training (VET) sector. In 2009 the Australian Government launched the VET Outbound Mobility Grants program supporting over 30 mobility projects since their inception. Most recently in 2010 the Australian Government launched a new national VET Outbound Mobility Toolkit.
