Community-based education programs
About the programs
All young people need education options that meet their learning needs. The Brotherhood offers a range of integrated support and education programs for young people, including those who may not thrive in a traditional school environment.
Based at our Frankston High Street Centre, the programs include VET in Schools (Vocational Education and Training in Schools) and the Community VCAL (Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning) program. Our education programs work in partnership with schools and other local organisations.
Who is eligible?
Young people between the ages of 15 and 19 are eligible for our community-based education programs.
