How it works

Your CAQA LLND+ journey

You do not have to know framework names or technical words. We explain each step, tell you why we ask each question, and help you get the support you need for the course you want to study.

Create your learner profile

Tell us your name, contact details, learning goal and how you prefer to communicate. You can also tell us about language, disability, technology or other support needs.

  • You can ask another person to help.
  • You can request another format or reasonable adjustment.
  • Your information is shared only with authorised people.

Select the course or training

Choose the training product you want to enter. For nationally recognised VET, the organisation can use current training-product information. Higher education, corporate, ISO and professional programs use an approved course-demand profile.

  • The course—not a generic quiz—sets the skill demands.
  • A provider reviews the course profile before using it.
  • You see the course and delivery information before you continue.

Receive a matched skills check

The system chooses short activities that match the course level, industry, delivery method and common learner tasks. It may check learning, reading, writing, speaking and listening, numeracy, digital skills and employability skills.

  • AQF informs complexity but is not treated as an automatic ACSF score.
  • Non-AQF programs use documented industry or professional standards.
  • An LLND expert can review or change the assessment route.

Take part in an accessible way

Instructions use easy language. You can ask for help, use approved assistive technology, take rest breaks or complete an equivalent accessible activity when appropriate.

  • Adjustments are recorded so results can be interpreted fairly.
  • The system separates a support need from a lack of ability.
  • High-risk decisions require a qualified person, not software alone.

Understand your results

You receive a plain-language summary of strengths, areas to develop and how these compare with the selected course. A result does not diagnose a disability and does not automatically accept or reject enrolment.

  • Providers see evidence relevant to the course.
  • Experts can record professional judgement and uncertainty.
  • English admission tests may be considered separately where required.

Agree on an individual learner support plan

You and the provider decide what help will be offered, who will provide it and when progress will be reviewed. An approved CAQA LLND expert or the organisation’s own specialist can participate.

  • Examples include extra workshops, language support, assistive technology, mentoring, alternative formats and study-skill coaching.
  • Each action has an owner and review date.
  • You can comment on the plan and ask for changes.

Receive support and review progress

Staff record the support that was offered and delivered. The learner and provider review whether it helped and update the plan when needed. Reports show the evidence trail without replacing human responsibility.

  • Missed support and overdue reviews are visible to authorised staff.
  • Progress can be checked at agreed milestones.
  • Final reports explain outcomes, actions and remaining needs.
