Pre-Enrolment Requirement
PTI requires all prospective students to complete a Language, Literacy, Numeracy, and Digital Literacy (LLND) self-assessment before enrolment is finalised.
This screening is conducted online and takes approximately 10–15 minutes. PTI uses LLND results to identify support needs and offer reasonable adjustments, such as additional tutorials, mentoring, or modified delivery formats.
This ensures students are set up for success from the start.
Any reasonable adjustments must not compromise the requirements of the relevant training product and the integrity, equity and fairness of assessment.
