This unit describes the skills and knowledge to locate, recognise and write whole numbers and monetary amounts, to undertake extremely familiar and simple numerical processes such as counting, sequencing and simple adding and communicating extremely simple mathematical information.
An individual performing these tasks operates alongside an expert or mentor where significant support, prompting advice and modelling can be provided.
This unit applies to individuals who use, or are preparing to use, numeracy skills to complete workplace activities. This includes existing workers and individuals preparing for employment through vocational education and training. This unit can be integrated and contextualised with vocational training to support achievement of vocational competency.
