Language, Literacy, and Numeracy (LLN)
Free language, literacy and numeracy support
If you need help with reading, writing, numeracy or digital skills, free support may be available through Australian Government programs such as Skills for Education and Employment (SEE). Contact BTA and we will help you find the right support before or during your assessment.
The reading and writing hotline
The reading and writing hotline is a national telephone adult literacy referral service, funded by the Australian Government. Experienced teachers can provide callers with advice on ways to improve reading, writing, and numeracy skills and give information on adult literacy and numeracy classes in your local area. The hotline is open 24 hours. Phone 1300 6555 06 from anywhere in Australia at the cost of a local call.
Support for RPL candidate
Free pre enrollment skills review
We discuss what your goals are and help you choose the right qualification that matches your skills and show you what you need to do to achieve your goals.
Flexible Delivery and Assessment Procedures
BTA recognises that not all participants learn in the same manner and that with a degree of reasonable adjustment participants who may not learn best via traditional learning and assessment methods will still achieve good results.

Builder’s and contractor licences
To work as a builder or tradesperson in Australia, you generally need a licence or registration issued by your state or territory regulator. Requirements differ between states and may include a qualification, experience and other conditions. A qualification on its own does not guarantee a licence, so please check with the regulator in your state before applying.
Building Trades Australia is a trading name of Meee Australia Pty Ltd, a Registered Training Organisation (RTO 30979). BTA conducts all assessments and issues all qualifications. Our authorised partners provide marketing and referral services only. See our Partnership page for details.
