Evidence of the ability to:
consult with relevant stakeholders to identify goals for community program and purpose for adult language, literacy and numeracy practitioner involvement
identify program funding source, focus and associated evaluation and reporting requirements
analyse English language, literacy and numeracy requirements of a community program and identify intended participants in consultation with relevant personnel
lead the design and development of strategies to provide language, literacy and numeracy support for a community program based on the identified program goals and participant needs
develop and implement a communication strategy that is appropriate for the needs of intended participants
lead implementation of language, literacy and numeracy support for a community program in collaboration with community program personnel and relevant stakeholders
