The European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL) is the European-wide
qualification which enables people to demonstrate their competence
in computer skills.
The ECDL syllabus is designed to cover the key concepts of computing,
its practical applications and their use in the workplace and society
in general. It is broken down into seven modules, each of which
must be passed before the ECDL certificate is awarded. ECDL is open
to anyone - regardless of age, education, experience or background.
Candidates will purchase a logbook listing all the modules. As
they pass each module, the accredited testing body will sign the
logbook. The modules may be taken in any order and over any period
of time between one day and three years - offering maximum flexibility.
When
all the modules have been successfully completed, the logbook is
exchanged for a certificate.
User Friendly is an accredited test centre for ECDL tests.
Users may, if they wish, take the tests without any formal preparation.
However, we offer training to prepare for each module through distance
learning.
The seven ECDL modules are:
- Module 1: Basic concepts of IT
- Module 2: Using the computer and managing files
- Module 3: Word processing
- Module 4: Spreadsheets
- Module 5: Databases/filing systems
- Module 6: Presentation and drawing
- Module 7: Information network services
