Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application	This unit describes the skills and knowledge that vocational trainers and assessors need to access resources, which include collaboration with foundation skills specialists, in order to integrate foundation skills into a vocational training program.The unit applies to individuals who teach, train, assess and develop training and assessment resources.Competence in this unit does not indicate that a person is a qualified specialist adult language, literacy or numeracy practitioner.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting	X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting. Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Conditions must be typical of those experienced in the training and assessment environment and include access to: texts and tasks typically found in the workplace specialist LLN practitioners for consultation and verification of approaches training and assessment tools based on the ACSF levels training package support materials workplace-specific tools, equipment, materials and industry software packages (where applicable). Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

Evidence of the ability to:

analyse a training specification to identify key areas where foundation skills are critical to vocational competence

analyse training plans to identify where foundation skills will need to be addressed in training and assessment for at least two of the core skills (learning, reading, writing, oral communication, numeracy)

access and use appropriate resources with learners to address at least two of the core skills (learning, reading, writing, oral communication, numeracy)

identify and access specialist input required to support own vocational practice
