NIACE has developed two OCN accredited qualifications for Skills for Life practitioners and those working in the field of teaching or delivering literacy, language and numeracy. These cover the topic of ‘Teaching & Delivering Literacy, Language & Numeracy in the context of finance'. There is Level 2 which takes 10 hours and a more in-depth Level 3, which takes 30 hours.
Both are about how tutors can embed financial learning into their existing teaching. They cover why finance is an important context for the delivery of literacy, language and numeracy and the issues this causes for LLN practitioners, what existing resources there are and how these can be used within tutors' own sessions.
It is our understanding that time spent on these qualification can be used to count toward the new compulsory 30 hours of CPD required for practitioners.
