Synergistiq, an independent research consultancy, has been appointed by the Department of Education to undertake an evaluation of VELCI. Through this evaluation,we are seeking to understand the effectiveness of the program, how the program contributes to the department’s education policy, and what may be able to be improved. The findings of this evaluation will inform the department's future decision-making and help the department understand more about supporting early leavers through the school exemption and during their post-school pathways.
Synergistiq acknowledges Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia and recognizes the continuing connection to lands, waters and communities. We pay our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures; and to Elders past and present.
