Register

Registrations for the February 2025 test window (Test Window 1) will open on 8 January 2025 and will close at 5pm AEDT on 21 January 2025. Test registrations will only be accepted during the published registration period; late registrations will not be accepted under any circumstances. 

Following the National Teacher Workforce Action Plan (Action Plan) - LANTITE trial, Education Ministers agreed from 2025 there will be no test limits for candidates sitting the LANTITE. The trial showed removing test limits and providing better feedback led to more candidates sitting the test and meeting the standard, and the changes were received positively from candidates and higher education providers. Please refer to https://www.education.gov.au/teaching-and-school-leadership/literacy-and-numeracy-test-initial-teacher-education and the FAQ page for relevant information.

This change will allow all candidates to continue to improve their personal literacy and numeracy skills to ensure they can meet the required standard. Higher education providers continue to play a key role in supporting their students to meet the standard. 

Please be aware that if you act or communicate in a manner that is dishonest, disruptive, offensive, aggressive or abusive during your test session, or in your verbal or written communications with ACER, ProctorU, or other test staff before, during or after the test, or if you engage in any of the acts listed as misconduct, you may be reported and subject to the CONSEQUENCES as listed on the 'Misconduct' page.

COVID-19 Safe procedures at test centres

COVID-19 is still declared a pandemic by the World Health Organisation.

ACER will take precautionary measures within its reasonable control as recommended by public health authorities in Australia in respect of its test venues. It is each individual candidate’s responsibility to familiarise themselves with and follow any precautionary measures recommended by public health authorities in a candidate’s state or territory.

Where consistent with public health authority orders or precautionary measures in candidates’ locations, ACER recommends candidates:

Please follow:

  • the relevant advice of the health authority in your state/territory; and 
  • the instructions of staff at the test centres and test supervisors. Failure to do so will be considered as misconduct.

Note:

Candidates who have registered to sit the test at a test centre that is located in a different state or territory must also familiarise themselves with and follow any precautionary measures recommended by public health authorities in that state or territory.
