From 1 July 2025, new national requirements mean we’ll need to assess your existing skills before finalising your enrolment. As part of your application, we’ll ask a few simple questions to check that your Language, Literacy, Numeracy and Digital (LLND) skills — along with your physical readiness — align with the course requirements. It’s all about making sure you’re set up for success from the very start!

Enrolment in this course is not confirmed until all pre-enrolment tasks are completed and payment is made.
