Steve Davis interviews a group of presenters from the 34th National VET Research Conference 'No Frills', held on 9 - 11 July 2025 on the Gold Coast.

In part one of this two part series, the discussion focuses on the structural and methodological aspects of creating inclusive VET systems, the 'how' of designing and delivering inclusive education. Presenters explore inclusive approaches to VET design and delivery, inclusive training practices for a diverse workforce, strengthening pathways into VET and beyond for diverse learners, and building digital literacy for a diverse learner base.
