    Note

    Cert IV students ONLY: Where students score below an exit level of 2, the trainer must confirm that the student is suitable to study the proposed qualification with support, e.g. Cert IV Youth Work. This can be confirmed by asking questions during the interview regarding their LLN abilities, observing interactions on induction day or re-sitting the LLN test. This would include (but is not limited to) an evaluation of their ability to complete paperwork and communicate clearly, as well as a review of their previous employment and education history.
