Language, Literacy & Numeracy (LLN)

The LLN screening confirms that students have the minimum skills required to safely undertake training and assessment, including the ability to:

• Read and interpret written safety information, procedures and signage
• Communicate effectively in spoken and written English
• Perform calculations and measurements relevant to rigging tasks

Where the screening identifies that a student may require additional support, Momentum High Risk Training will discuss reasonable adjustments, support strategies, or alternative training options prior to enrolment to ensure safe and effective participation.

Inexperienced Workers

Where a student is identified as an inexperienced worker, additional training time may be required before assessment to ensure competency is achieved.

In such cases, the Trainer/Assessor may recommend:

• Further workplace-based training under the supervision of a competent person
• Completion of structured training activities recorded in a logbook

Once the required experience and skills have been obtained, the participant may return to Momentum High Risk Training to undertake formal assessment.
