Foundation Skills Integration Skill Set

This nationally recognised skill set is designed for VET teachers, trainers and assessors who want to better understand and support the foundation skills needs of their learners.

You’ll gain practical strategies to identify foundation skill demands embedded in training packages and integrate targeted support into your training and assessment practice—whether in the workplace, a learning environment, or during assessment.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Recognise the core language, literacy, numeracy (LLN), and employability skill requirements within training products
  • Plan and deliver effective support strategies to meet these foundation skill needs
  • Review and adapt your approach based on learner outcomes and feedback

Designed for vocationally qualified or skilled Teachers who have been asked to, or are intending to, assess a VET program within their School and require this additional skill set to meet compliance requirements.
