Interested in being an adult literacy practitioner?

The Tasmanian Council for Adult Literacy (TCAL) has developed a Practitioner Pathways Map (PPM). 

It identifies the qualifications available for people involved in the delivery of Language, Literacy and Numeracy (LLN) programs for adults. It also gives an overview of the entry points for people who want to join the Adult LLN workforce and the pathways available.
