Gaining a
Certificate in Adult Literacy and/or Numeracy is the perfect way to prove your
understanding of language, grammar, numerical data and competency in
mathematics. The Certificates are nationally recognised qualifications,
designed to measure skills at an equivalent level to other national
qualifications.
There are two levels of the Certificate available
:
- Certificate in Adult Literacy Level 1
- Certificate in Adult Literacy Level 2
- Certificate in Adult Numeracy Level 1
- Certificate in Adult Numeracy Level 2
The Level 2 Certificates are the more advanced -
achieving this is the equivalent to a grade A - C at GCSE level.
To get a Certificate, you need to take and pass a
short test. It's multiple choice, only 40 questions long and taken on a
computer in the relaxed atmosphere of our accredited learning centre. Once you
have completed the test, there is no "painful" waiting period - you will know
your result within minutes !
But of course, taking the test itself is only part
of the pathway to gaining an Adult Literacy or Numeracy qualification : After
doing an initial skills check, there are a large number of courses available to
you if you need to increase your knowledge in any particular areas before
taking the test. There are also some practice questions and past tests for you
to do, to prepare you and help build your confidence prior to the actual test.
