hello, pardon my poor english.. i'm searching for a study guide or anything that will prepare me for taking the ECDL/ICDL V4 certificate :doh: i know it's nothing comparing to the rest like MCSE & all, but i have to pass this at work! it's Compulsory in the ministry of education for all the staff. NOTE: i work as a computer tech in a sec school. ECDL: The European Computer Driving License ICDL: International Computer Driving License thanks for time
The ECDL is a foundation course which covers basic Windows XP and Microsoft Office 2000, 2003 techniques. I learned nothing new on the operating system side but I went away with a few Office 2000 tricks up my sleeve. I think there are 5 exams to sit, one for the OS and one for every Office application such as Word and Excel. Most of the tutoring is done from a CD, although you can go to tutor lead classes if you want to. From a job perspective the ECDL is useless and unrecognised. I only took the examinations because it was thrown in with my other lessons for A+, N+ and MCSE.
It's currently the 1 IT Qualification in the UK that most NHS Trusts have embraced as the course they want staff to undertake.
