Access required
Sign in as the learner. Only assessments assigned to your own enrolment are available; release, attempt and prerequisite rules still apply.
Language, Literacy, and Numeracy assessment
What is it?
Before some courses begin, your training provider may require you to complete a Language, Literacy, and Numeracy assessment. This helps identify your current skills in:
- Reading: Understanding written information
- Writing: Expressing ideas in writing
- Numeracy: Working with numbers and measurements
- Oral communication: Speaking and listening (if applicable)
- Digital literacy: Using computers and technology
Why is it required?
This assessment helps your training provider:
- Understand your learning needs
- Provide appropriate support
- Ensure you can successfully complete your course
- Meet government requirements
Completing the assessment
- If your course requires this assessment, you'll be directed to it automatically when you log into the portal
- Answer all questions honestly, there are no wrong answers
- Submit when finished
The assessment typically takes 15 to 30 minutes.
Note
This is not a pass/fail exam. It helps your training provider understand your needs. Once completed, you won't need to do it again for future courses with the same training provider.
After the assessment
Your results are reviewed by your training provider (some are marked automatically). They may:
- Contact you to discuss support options
- Provide additional resources
- Assign a learning support officer
- Adjust delivery methods to suit your needs

Per-question feedback
After your assessment is marked, you can see a detailed breakdown for each question:
