Overview


The 2026 National VET Conference will be delivered over two days on the 29th and 30th October 2026 at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre.

It will provide attendees with the opportunity to engage in a wide variety of plenary and concurrent elective sessions.

This is our 19th annual National VET Conference, and promises to provide a fantastic opportunity for delegates to undertake professional development that is meaningful to them, meet with product and service providers, and network with peers from across Australia.


#2026NVC Theme: Forging a Trusted Future

We chose the word Forging deliberately. It is an active, powerful process of creating something strong, resilient, and lasting out of heat and pressure - a perfect description of our current climate. 

 A Trusted Future is our goal! This is our sector's collective statement: a commitment to the transparency, the robust systems, and the ethical practices that separate the best from the rest.

The image of interlocking hands represents our strength in collaboration - forging a chain of trust (with our students, with industry, with the regulators, and with each other) that cannot be broken.

We hope you will join us to forge that future, together!
