Our Introduction to Digital Literacy short course is aimed at two primary cohorts of students:

  1. Students with an intellectual disability
  2. New migrants with low-level language and numeracy skills

The course covers entry-level understanding and concepts around the English language, words, phrases and complete sentences. Looking at numbers, the course covers single digits and counting in tens to using numbers to understand currency and using money.

Thoroughly enjoyed completing my cert 3 and 4 in disability with AST, and am now working in a very rewarding career.

Course Participant Joanne

I wanted a change of careers and AST went above and beyond to find a course that suited my needs, the enrolment process was a breeze and I was supported through the process. Starting a course as an adult was very nerve racking, but the trainer I had ensured every single students needs were met and catered his teaching style to suit their needs, a very inclusive organisation and a very safe environment to be in.

Course participant Angie

I would highly recommend AST and if I decide to do more study I will definitely be using AST.

Course Participant Heidi

Access Skills Training was the best experience for me, and the best thing that I could have done.
