The "Domains, Tasks and Knowledge and Skill Statements Section" (pages 23-40) provides insight into the five domains and their task statements as delineated by the technical advisors and survey respondents. You should pay particular attention to the knowledge and skill areas which are delineated under each task as it is likely that LEP examination questions will be based on these items.
