Description
The Endeavour Awards are a part of the Australia Awards initiative which was announced by the Prime
Minister in November 2009. The Australia Awards have been established to maximize the benefit to
Australia of its extensive scholarship programs, and to support enduring ties between Australia and its
neighbors. The Endeavour Vocational Education and Training (VET) Awards provide financial support for
international students from participating countries to undertake vocational education at a diploma,
advanced diploma or associate degree level in any field of study in Australia. Vocational education and
training provides occupational or work-related knowledge and skills. The courses are traditionally
nonacademic and directly related to a trade, occupation or ‘vocation’ in which the applicant participates.
These courses exclude degree and higher level programs normally delivered by universities.
