Course Details
Course Summary
The Course in Skills to Access Learning Pathways was developed in response to the needs of a broad range of industry, community services and education sector stakeholders for a national training product for learners whose core skills in learning, reading, writing, oral communication and numeracy represent barriers to gaining the ACSF exit level 1 skills necessary to access further education or training. It is intended to provide participants with the core skills at a minimum Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) exit level of 1. This level is typically required to progress on to meaningful further learning pathways based on learner interests, needs and aspirations across different aspects of life – personal (including higher level core skills), community involvement, vocational training or general education.

Study Mode Definitions
- Online: Online courses provide the flexibility to study without normally requiring a student to visit a campus. Course content is studied through a number of means including the use of online discussion forums, electronic library resources, by contacting lecturers and teachers, and receiving study materials online/electronically. Work integrated learning, including placements, may be included in some courses.
- On-campus: Students studying in on-campus mode typically are expected to attend and participate in regular, structured on-campus teaching and learning activities throughout the University’s academic term. These activities may include lectures, tutorials, workshops and practice, online or other activities and normally will be timetabled at a CQUniversity campus or approved delivery site.
- Mixed Mode: Students studying in mixed mode will participate in a combination of online learning activities in addition to site-specific learning activities, which may include residential schools, co-op placements and/or work-integrated learning as a compulsory requirement of a unit. The additional site-specific learning activities are what differentiates a mixed-mode unit from an online unit.
*All study modes may include Vocational placement and/or work integrated learning.

Standard Course Structure
This program is typically delivered over a 54 week period, however as it is competency based, it may be possible for learners to complete their training sooner if they have reached the required skill level. If the planned duration is less than that described by the AQF (volume of learning), a rationale detailing how the cohort will have the characteristics to achieve the required rigor and depth of training and can meet all of the competency requirements in a shorter timeframe will be provided. To complete the Course in Skills to Develop Learning Pathways, the learner must complete eleven units - 9 core and 2 electives.
