This qualification is approved for use by 16-19 learners and adults. The qualification develops candidates' ability to apply communication skills in a range of familiar contexts and situations. Success in national adult literacy tests acts as a proxy for the associated Key Skills tests in Communication. This makes key skills an obvious progression route for adult literacy candidates as they will only be required to do the portfolio component.
