Policy

Aspire to Succeed recognises the importance of basic skills in English language, literacy, and numeracy (LLN), to ensure learners can participate actively and effectively in any course of study.

Improving basic skills will assist in breaking down barriers for students in communicating with their trainers, peers and in the workplace. To achieve this, Aspire to Succeed will ensure that all participants enrolled in our vocational training courses are given the opportunity to learn based on their individual competencies in LLN identified by an LLN assessment test.

We recognise that not all individuals have the same skills-set in reading, writing, and performing calculations. Trainers and staff will endeavour to help and accommodate learners with difficulties in Language, Literacy or Numeracy. If we are unable to meet the specific needs of the learner, we will refer the participant to an external support provider.

Procedure

Aspire to Succeed are required to ensure that we make every effort to assist our learners in achieving competency and the desired outcomes in our training programs. Part of this obligation is to ensure we confirm or re-affirm the information provided to us about learners and about any special needs that we need to know about.

The process used at Aspire to Succeed is two-fold, comprising: a review of the contents of the enrolment form, and an LLN assessment test. The purpose of the LLN assessment test is to confirm language, literacy, and numeracy skills.

The aim of this assessment is to ensure that we confirm the learning needs of our learners prior to commencement of the training. If we can identify any learner with special needs, we can then ensure that we modify our learning and assessment strategies to accommodate their needs.

Equal Access

Access to training must be equal for all participants. Aspire to Succeed does not discriminate against participants whose needs are identified under the standards of LLN with regard to their enrolment in any current or future training courses. Where LLN levels are identified as being lower than the specified requirements for the qualification or course level, Aspire to Succeed will provide advice and information about alternative program choices or where they can obtain assistance with their LLN needs.

Language

In its broadest sense, language involves the words, verbal structures, and gestures we use to convey meaning. In using language, we generally use a combination of communication forms such as speaking, listening, reading, writing and visual communication.

Literacy

Literacy is the ability to read and use written information as well as to write appropriately, in a range of contexts. Literacy involves the integration of speaking, listening, and critical thinking with reading and writing. Literacy skills enable us to interact with one another to achieve purposes: to explain, debate, retrieve and provide information, explore issues, entertain, and create.

Numeracy

Numeracy involves the practical application of mathematical skills to absorb, use and critically evaluate information in numerical or graphical form. Depending on the context this can include basic number skills, spatial and graphical concepts, the use of measurement and problem solving. Numeracy may also involve literacy, for example when extracting mathematical information from written text

Baseline digital Skills

Baseline digital skills – are digital literacy skills requested by employers for most jobs. They include skills in office suite software (word processing, spreadsheet, and presentation software), enterprise resource planning and project management software.

Please complete the below LLN Assessment to demonstrate your ability to meet the course literacy requirements.

Jamie was telling Tom about the sounds he could hear in the bush early the next morning. “First you will hear the wattle bird – it sounds like a string of hiccups – that will be the one to wake you! It wakes up the other birds too. Then you will hear a warbling sound – that is the magpies, then that will start the sparrows chirping.”
Tom was looking forward to listening to the bird sounds in the morning. He wondered if Theodore and Scott would be woken by the birds – they were already fast asleep in their sleeping bags. He hoped the morning would be warmer – it was freezing!
