Funding to seven education and training providers has been cut as part of an industry-wide crackdown on dodgy operators, the Victorian Government has said.

Three training providers have had their contracts terminated, while four others have been given notice that their funding will be revoked.

The cuts were part of a $9 million "blitz" launched by the Government last month following a review into the quality of the state's vocational education and training system.

Imperial College, MWT Institute and Management Institute of Australia No 2 Pty Ltd were among those to lose funding.

The issues identified at the providers included fraudulent claims for training that did not occur and unauthorised sub-contracting of training delivery.

They also offered incentives or inducements to students to undertake funded training, which is prohibited.

The Government said the $6 million recovered as a result of the cuts would be "re-invested into further measures to improve quality".

"Poor quality, dodgy or non-existent training or breaches of contract are no longer acceptable," Minister for Training and Skills, Steve Herbert, said.

"I'm hoping that will send a strong message to the industry and those that are perhaps not doing the right thing will get out.

"The next thing for the Government is to implement the 19 recommendations of a major review of quality.

"One of those was that there should be more transparency on this and the Department of Education will be publishing from this date on the names of those who have had their contracts terminated."

He said the Department of Education would refer cases where there had been serious misconduct to the police.

The Government said investigations into providers were continuing, with a further 17 under case management.
