Abstract	This kit explores Australia's National Training Framework, training packages, industry standards and assessment, and the implications of these changes for language, literacy, and numeracy practitioners. Four sections in Part 1 present a series of answers to four frequently asked questions about training packages posed by practitioners in consultations and forums during the first half of 1998. Question 1 asks "Where did we come from, and where are we are going?" The answer addresses the training reform and the implications for language, literacy, and numeracy provision in industry. Question 2 asks "What are the changes that the Training Package model brings for the language, literacy, and numeracy field?" This section discusses opportunities for contextualized literacy; incorporation of language, literacy, and numeracy competencies into industry competency standards; and standards as the new basis for assessment--a comparison between the old and new systems. Question 3 asks, "What are the roles of the future language, literacy, and numeracy practitioner in industry?" Question 4 asks and answers the question, "What is in a training package?" This section describes the endorsed part of the package, which includes the National Competency Standards, assessment guidelines, and qualifications; and the nonendorsed components, which are the learning strategy, assessment resources, and professional development materials. Part 2 provides accompanying activities to assist the reader to work through issues raised. A final section contains 4 contacts and 31 references. (YLB)
