Adult Literacy & Numeracy
NOCN's Entry Level qualifications in Adult Literacy and Numeracy have been developed to support providers in
responding to learner needs and to offer accreditation that recognises smaller steps toward the achievement of a qualification.
The National Tests in Adult Literacy and Adult Numeracy at Level 1 and Level 2 are also available.
There is no prescribed route to any of the NOCN National Tests and they are not unit based. Learners therefore have the opportunity to take a National Test at any time during their learning programme. For learners, achievement of the National Test marks their progress and encourages them to move on to achieve other units and qualifications. Learners should be offered access to the NOCN National Tests on-screen as part of their individual learning programme at a point where the learner is most likely to achieve a successful outcome.
