All students will complete a language literacy and numeracy assessment to determine their learning support needs. Where additional support needs have been identified, an Individual Support Plan will be developed which may include mentoring from trainers, additional classes, tutorials and workshops, online support and exercises, computer and technology support, referral to external support services, and reasonable adjustment to assessments. Australian College of Studies will provide additional support for students experiencing disability and access issues, language barriers, language, literacy and numeracy issues, employment issues, and any other issues that may affect their ability to achieve their training goals.
