Focus Week: What do Foundation Skills mean to the general Trainer and Assessor

6 December 2019
ONLINE

This webinar is one of five available during Velg Training's dedicated Focus Week - Foundation Skills.  A dedicated week of learning opportunities (one webinar per day) specifically designed to increase knowledge and skills of VET practitioners in targeted topics.

About this webinar

What do Foundation Skills mean to the general Trainer and Assessor
This session will consider the implications of foundation skills for 'general' trainers and assessors rather than LLN specialists. I'm not a specialist in Language, Literacy and Numeracy (LLN). I'm a general trainer/assessor working in my own industry. So what are foundation skills and what am I supposed to do with them?

Key topics covered within webinar

  • What foundation skills are
  • How foundation skills are described in the unit of competency
  • Identifying specific foundation skills within the unit
  • What the “general” vocational trainer /assessor can do with all of this
  • Incorporating foundation skills into training and assessment processes

NB. Can't make the session?
We send out all electronic resources to registrants within 48 hours of the session closure. All Velg Training Webinars are scheduled in AEST (QLD time) - please check your timezone before logging onto the online training session.
