European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL)
ECDL is designed for all members of staff who use computers on a daily basis, but would like to enhance their skills to enable them to use the most appropriate software for the work they are doing. This not only allows staff to become more efficient at their job, but if they successfully complete the seven modules they gain an internationally acclaimed award accredited by the British Computer Society and widely recognised by employers. This is not for complete beginners and staff need to already be able to use a keyboard and mouse.
Course Content
The course covers seven modules:
· Module 1 – Basic concepts of IT
· Module 2 – Using the computer & managing files
· Module 3 – Word processing
· Module 4 – Spreadsheets
· Module 5 – Databases
· Module 6 – Presentations
- Module 7 – Information & Communication
The course covers some theory, but is mostly practical with a test for each of the modules.
