  2. How does it work? (paper-based) Careerforce creates a new paper-based assessment in The Tool every three months. This is downloaded from The Tool as a PDF document. The PDF is emailed to a designated literacy coordinator in each company. The literacy coordinator forwards this email to the trainers / assessors within the company.

  3. How does it work? (paper-based) • The assessment is ‘non-adaptive’ – it doesn’t adapt the questions to the learner’s responses like the online version • It has a range of questions from Step 2 – Step 5 on The Progressions • Careerforce only uses the ‘snapshot’ assessment (around 15 – 17 questions). • A full diagnostic assessment has about 30 questions. • It takes about 20 – 30 minutes from start to finish. • You can go back over questions and, unfortunately you can • skip questions. Unanswered questions or incompletely • answered questions don’t score.

  4. How it works – making a book • When printing out the PDF: • Layout – Print Type - 2-sided • Finish – Staple - 2 position left • so that it opens up like a book so…. • the learner sees the text on the left side • and the related questions on the right side.
