Programmes

ECDL / ICDL certification programmes consist of modules which define the skills and competencies necessary to be a proficient user of a computer and common computer applications. Each ECDL / ICDL module provides a practical programme of up-to-date skills and knowledge areas which are validated by a test.  There are 11 ECDL / ICDL modules in total.

ECDL / ICDL Certification: ECDL (ICDL outside Europe), is the international standard in end-user computer skills.   Our collective experience in implementing certification programmes across education systems and government administrations has demonstrated that for a recommended level of ICT competence to be achieved which would enable effective employability, a certification of a minimum of seven ECDL / ICDL modules is appropriate.  Modules 2,3, and 7 are compulsory modules plus any 4 additional modules.

ECDL / ICDL Start Certification: For an individual to achieve a solid base of skills and knowledge, therefore attaining a minimum level of digital literacy, we recommend that candidates complete and attain certification in a minimum of four ECDL / ICDL modules.  Modules 2,3, and 7 are recommended modules plus any 1 additional module.
