EPIC is introducing in 2012 the Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning (VCAL) which is a hands-on option for students in Years 11 and 12. The VCAL gives you practical work-related experience, as well as literacy and numeracy skills and the opportunity to build personal skills that are important for life and work.
