Issue Date: April 2024
This unit applies to practitioners working to develop literacy skills and knowledge.
Adult literacy is offered in stand-alone courses or integrated into programs with an adult English language, numeracy or general education focus. Adult literacy is also delivered to individuals or groups in vocational training and in the workplace.
An adult literacy practitioner requires skills and knowledge to deliver literacy at Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) levels 1 to 5.
The client profile of those wishing to participate in adult literacy and numeracy provision is typically culturally and linguistically diverse. The classroom, the workplace and the community may include those for whom English is their second, third or more language, who wish to improve their English language skills. The performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to develop English language skills are described in TAELLN703A Develop English language skills of learners. The skills and knowledge needed to deliver and assess adult literacy skills are covered in TAELLN704A Implement and evaluate delivery of adult language, literacy and numeracy skills.
This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to analyse and apply effective adult literacy teaching practices to meet the needs of those participating in literacy provision in vocational education and training (VET) contexts. The unit also addresses the analysis and application of literacy theories and teaching strategies.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of endorsement.
