It is interesting that no statistics are available on the growth in access to Australia's "knowledge economy" for Australians. Shouldn't this data be transparently available?
When I contacted VTAC they explained that access to tertiary education was based on a "level playing field".
Based on this explanation, Australian students are competing against foreign students. If the foreign student gets a score one mark higher than an Australian student competing for one remaining university place in a particular course, the foreigner will get the place and the Australian will be denied the place.
What kind of a "knowledge economy" is that?
