Unitec could benefit from an overhaul of the vocational education sector.

The Auckland institution is the biggest in the country.

Interim chief executive Merran Davis says it's well known they're struggling financially, and changes need to be significant.

She says the Government's proposal certainly presents the ability to integrate on-job/off-job training.

Davis says having a unified funding system and seamless vocational education sector would be good for all.
