As part of the 2010-11 Budget, the Australian Government announced the Foundation Skills Package which will invest $120 million over the next four years to tackle gaps in adult foundation skills.  The training measures funded under this package build on existing Australian Government foundation skills programs, namely, the Workplace English Language and Literacy (WELL) and the Language Literacy and Numeracy Program (LLNP), and introduce new innovative community-based places based on the Foundation Skills Taster Courses pilot.
