Description
The ICDL (International Computer Driving License) certification is a highly recognised qualification, it offers you a key recognition of your literacy in computer skills and is designed for novices or casual computer users and will get you to a high computer literacy standard. The ICDL Certification is the fastest growing IT user qualification in over 125 countries, with many UK companies setting the ICDL as a mandatory requirement, such as the NHS and the Police Service of Northern Ireland.
Without basic computer skills one can be quite cumbersome in the office, limiting their roles and value. Some employers or companies may not even consider you as a candidate without a reasonable level of computer skills. The ICDL certification training is designed for novices or casual computer users that will take learners to a high computer literacy standard by improving your knowledge on these key areas:
- Computer Essentials
- IT Security
- Online Essentials
- Presentations (PowerPoint)
- Spreadsheets (Excel)
- Word Processing (Word)
- Databases (Access)

By gaining an ICDL certification you or staff in your company will become more confident and efficient in using computers and the ‘industry standard’ Windows programmes such as Word, Excel and PowerPoint as well as greater employee motivation, increased productivity and reducing time wasted on solving computer related tasks. An extensive number of companies in the UK have already set ICDL as the benchmark for computer skills, including NHS, HSBC and Sainsburys.
