It is broken down into seven modules, each of which must be passed before an ECDL certificate is awarded.
Once a candidate is registered at an accredited Test Centre, a logbook listing all 7 modules is issued.
The modules may be taken in any order and over any period of time up to three years - even all at once - offering maximum flexibility.
When all 7 modules have been successfully passed, the logbook is exchanged for a certificate and ECDL 'licence' card.
The seven modules that make up
the ECDL are:
1. Basic concepts of IT
2. Using the computer and managing
files
3. Word processing
4. Spreadsheets
5. Database
6. Presentation
7. Information and Communication
