LLN and Student Support

All students complete a Language, Literacy and Numeracy (LLN) assessment
at enrolment to help us identify any support needs. Intertrain provides a range of learning support, including help with reading, writing, numeracy, and using our online platform. Students also have access to trainer support via email, phone, and webinars. Where needed, we offer one-on-one assistance and reasonable adjustments to ensure every learner has the opportunity to succeed.

RPL and Credit Transfer

Intertrain recognises that students may already hold skills or qualifications that align with the units of competency in the TAE40122 Certificate IV in Training and Assessment. We offer both Credit Transfer for previously completed nationally recognised training and Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) for skills gained through work experience or informal learning.
Students can apply for RPL or Credit Transfer during the enrolment process. Each application is assessed individually, ensuring the evidence provided is current, authentic, valid, and sufficient.
Where granted, RPL or Credit Transfer may reduce the overall course duration and assessment workload. We encourage students to speak with our enrolment team to explore their eligibility and receive guidance through the application process.
