Australian Baccalaureate Programs
In Australia, each state has its own baccalaureate program, such as SACE, VCE, HSC, but all strictly follow the requirements of the national curriculum framework.

In particular, the first commitment is to promote excellence and fairness, focus on academic quality as well as meet the diverse needs of all students.
Baccalaureate programs are flexible and last for two academic years. Most students will begin their journey with an individual study plan in 10th grade. The components designed in the curriculum framework include general capabilities, sub-disciplines and subjects. learning areas and subjects. Along with that, there are three priority groups integrated in the training program (Cross curriculum priorities) including Australian Aboriginal Cultural History, Australia - Asia Integration and Sustainable Development.

Baccalaureate degrees in states like SACE are guaranteed, internationally recognized and can be used by students to apply to universities in many different countries.
