Language Literacy and Numeracy Program...

 

 

 

CSA provides one of the largest face-to-face Language, Literacy and Numeracy programs in New South Wales and has been involved with this program since 1997.  CSA delivers the Language. Literacy and Numeracy Training on behalf of The Department of Education Employment and Workplace Relations and works closely with Centrelink and Job Networks - Employment Service Providers  to provide training to clients from Culturally & Linguistically Diverse Backgrounds (CALD), the unemployed, the long term unemployed and those who require English skills to assist them to find employment.

 

Language, Literacy and Numeracy is delivered from CSA’s five training facilities which include the following areas:

 

Parramatta, Merrylands, Auburn and Baulkham Hills -Delivered at CSA Parramatta and Auburn training venues close to parking and public transport

Cabramatta, Fairfield and Liverpool - Delivered at CSA Cabramatta, Fairfield and Liverpool training venues close to public transport and parking

 

The target group is challenging in terms of training development, given their individual needs. Trainers for the program are selected for their demonstrated capabilities with this group.  The Program Coordinator has extensive experience in delivering training and coordinating educational programs for candidates with learning difficulties and behavioural problems, internationally.

 

The Language, Literacy and Numeracy Program has two elements:

 

1)     Assessment of candidates relating existing skills to the National Reporting Standards for Language, Literacy and Numeracy and providing an extensive report of assessment outcomes.

2)     Provision of training in Language, Literacy and Numeracy specific to each participant.  There are five streams of training available to participants:

 

Language training focus in three streams:  Initial, Basic and Advanced

Literacy/numeracy training focus in two streams:  Basic and Advanced

 

The delivery strategy for the training is face to face with a requirement of a minimum of 12 hours training per week to a maximum of 20 hours per week depending clients requirements.  Clients can be eligible for a total of 800 hours of training delivered in 200 hour blocks.

 

There are two objectives to the Program:

 

1)     To increase the participant’s Language, Literacy and Numeracy skills and achieve two whole Australian Core Skills Framework Standards or to the standard appropriate to their position.

2)     To provide the client with a solution to the Language, Literacy and Numeracy problem and provide them with the skills to gain employment.

 

CSA has proven to be very successful at assisting people increase their Language, Literacy and Numeracy skills by working with people who have limited English to those who just need to improve to enhance their employment opportunities.  CSA prides itself on not only designing an effective curriculum but ensuring that its trainers are well suited to the role and deliver effective training solutions.
