维多利亚政府表示3.67亿澳元的预算将用于构建维多利亚的技能优势，维多利亚大学校长伊丽莎白表示这是一个好消息。

　　Harman教授表示：“这项资金将促使更多学生开始并完成自己的职业，有利于加强劳动者的技能，解决现在维多利亚州技能短缺的问题，并最终促进维多利亚州未来经济的发展”。

　　维多利亚政府将拨款4,800万澳元，用于继续促进TAFE（技术与继续教育）教学设施的现代化建设，这将有利于TAFE学院的技术与时俱进。伊丽莎白对此表示欢迎。

　　Harman教授表示：“职业教育学院如果没有现代化的教学装备，学生在完成课程后很难学习到他们所需的真正技能。”

　　VU's Vice Chancellor Professor Elizabeth Harman says that the announcement in the Victorian Government's Budget that they will allocate $367 million to build Victoria's skill advantage is good news.

　　Professor Harman said: "Funding that encourages more students to take up and, more importantly complete a trade, and boost the skills of the workforce will address the current skills shortage and be of great benefit to Victoria's future economy."

　　She also welcomed the announcement of $48 million to continue the modernisation of TAFE teaching equipment, allowing institutes to keep pace with the new and emerging technology.

　　Professor Harman said: "Without the right modern cutting edge equipment in institutions teaching vocational education, students will not be able to get the real skills they need to be job ready when they complete their courses."
