From 1 January 2026, VETASSESS will require all Pathway 1 applicants to submit a Language, Literacy, Numeracy, and Digital Skills (LLND) assessment along with their Documentary Evidence Assessment application. This update ensures that Registered Training Organisations can verify core skills for individuals who are pursuing an Australian qualification.
Who Is Affected?
- All VETASSESS Pathway 1 applicants lodging a Documentary Evidence Assessment from 1 January 2026 onwards.
Apart from this, applicants who are preparing for occupation-specific video evidence must use the updated video guides released on the VETASSESS website.
How to Submit Your LLND Assessment
To meet the new requirement:
- Download the LLND form from the Evidence Upload section in the online portal.
