Australian GED equivalent?

[stealthy_hayden]

So, I'm Australian myself, but I have absolutely no idea about this. I've googled 'australian ged equivalent' and related searches, and I've looked through this comm, but my search's been fruitless thus far

In Australia, you can't go and take exams to get the equivalent - you go back to high school or do the same subjects at TAFE to get your Year 12. In South Australia it's a SACE - but if you want, you can get most of the score for that from VET (vocational) subjects, including apprenticeships with subjects through TAFE.

South Australian here, and I did this. It's called Year 13, and is basically matric (SASE). It's changed a bit since I did Year 13, (and I did it at a TAFE, before the advent of Open Learning). Now, there's also the SAM (South Australian Matriculation) http://www.sace.sa.edu.au/web/sam/about-the-sam and you should be able to find out more about matric (year 12) and other final year schooling programs here at the SASE site: http://www.sace.sa.edu.au/home
