FAQs
Do I need to achieve the standard to complete my course?
The LANTITE is a compulsory requirement of your course. Refer to your course map and handbook for more information.
Recognition of First Nations language proficiency by the relevant cultural authority or a formal qualification in an Australian First Nations language is an acceptable alternative standard. (Noting this alternative standard is in lieu of all LANTITE requirements).
When should I attempt the first test?
You must make your first attempt at completing the LANTITE tests by the time you have attempted 24 credit points. You must then successfully pass the tests by the time you have attempted 48 credit points of study, unless the faculty has determined a different completion date for you in consultation with the Literacy and Numeracy Development Team.
Registration and test window details can be found on the ACER website.
What will happen if I do not sit the test or do not achieve the standard during my first year of study?
Failure to do so may delay course progression and prevent enrolment in professional experience units.
