What is the LLN Assessment?
The LLN Assessment is a task you complete prior to enrolment. Its purpose is to ensure that you have the required Language Literacy and numeracy (LLN) skills to successfully complete your course.

If you are needing additional support our trainers are here to advise and assist. They will work with you to create your own support plan.
RealCare Training training rooms are located in Newtown, Queensland.
If that's not near you or looking for more flexible study arrangements, we also offer a completely virtual learning option or a combination of both in-person and online. Your virtual learning will include an integration of online learning resources with live Zoom classrooms with our trainers.

Start the conversation
Everything starts with a conversation. Submit an enquiry online or contact the team via phone or email and we'll be able to start the process.
We'll discuss the course or training you are requiring and ensure that it is the best fit for your purposes. We can talk with you about costs, any eligibility for subsidised training and payment options if you are needing to pay full fee for your course.
We want you to be familiar with our team and our facility, so, if you're local, we like to arrange a time with you to visit us and meet real people.
If you're contacting us from interstate, we'll organise a phone or Zoom call instead.
