ABOUT LLNP

The Language, Literacy and Numeracy Program (LLNP) provides language, literacy and numeracy training for eligible clients. The program seeks to improve clients' language, literacy and/or numeracy with the expectation that such improvements will enable them to participate more effectively in training or in the labour force and lead to greater gains for society in the longer term.

As part of the Program, MTC Training Solutions provides up to 800 hours of basic adult language, literacy and numeracy training, assisting our clients to experience measurable improvements in their level of English language, literacy and numeracy competencies.

The training is undertaken between 15 and 20 hours per week over a period of 16 to 48 weeks and is tailored to the individual clients needs through targeted teaching from experienced English as a Second Language (ESL) and numeracy teachers.
