Course overview

Increase your chance of gaining employment by developing entry-level skills that give you the ability to do routine workplace tasks.

Many Australians do not possess the literacy and numeracy skills needed to participate fully in modern life and work. This course will give you the entry-level digital literacy and numeracy skills needed to gain employment or enter into further study.

This course is facilitated by expert teaching staff who understand that each learner is different. They will provide the support and guidance you need to complete your studies. You will develop reading, writing, numeracy, oral communication and learning skills at Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) Level 3. Our highly-experienced team of professionals can work with you to develop a vocational training and employment plan unique to you.

Successful completion of this course will set you on the path to gain employment or embark into further vocational training.
