Education and training for young people in Queensland has changed in recent years. A 'compulsory participation' requirement means that all young people must participate in 'learning or earning'
for two years after they complete compulsory schooling (i.e. completed year 10 or turned 16 years of age) or
until they turn 17 years of age or
until they complete a Queensland Certificate of Education (or Queensland Certificate of Individual Achievement), Senior Statement or a Certificate III or IV vocational qualification.
These changes are based on national and international evidence that young people who complete 12 years of education have greater opportunities for further education and sustainable employment.
