When should I sit the LANTITE for my education course?

UPDATED 08 OCT 2025 | 1:49AM

Your admitted course will determine when and if you need to complete LANTITE:

Bachelor of Education and Master of Teaching:

If you're admitted into one of these courses, you are required to attempt both sections of the LANTITE within your first year of studies. 

You are not required to pass both sections of the test before progressing to second year. However, successful completion of both sections of the LANTITE is required for graduation.

Graduate Diploma in Education:

If you're admitted into this course, you are not required to complete the LANTITE.

There are four LANTITE test windows per year. There is no limit to the number of times the LANTITE can be attempted. The sections can also be attempted individually (with no requirement to re-sit a section once it has been passed).

For more information on the following, as well as much more, the best source for LANTITE information is the ACER website:

▪ Registering for the tests - including test window dates and opening and closing dates for registration.

▪ Preparing for the tests - including practice material with sample questions for both the literacy and numeracy components and the format of the tests (e.g. areas addressed and number of questions).

▪ Sitting the tests - including information on permitted testing aids, test centres, remote proctoring, and misconduct.

Please make sure to read the information on the website thoroughly and carefully, paying particular attention to the section on misconduct as ACER does not permit any appeal against the consequences of misconduct.
