After the ICT moduel I am considering taking the The European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL) which is a qualification from the British Computer Society and is recognised internationally. This is one of the main reasons I would like to take this course, when I have left the UK to Africa I can present this qualification.
There is a choice to either do the course in a learning centre or as a flexible distance learning course. During the ICT sessions I enjoyed being part of a class, participating vocally and completing class assignments, so I will be taking this course at one the learning centres (The Working Men's College) which is close to home.
EDCL is made up of seven modules:
•basic concepts of IT
•using the computer and managing files
•word processing
•spreadsheets
•databases
•presentations
•internet and email
The Advanced ECDL course covers:
•spreadsheets
•databases
•presentation
•word processing
I will take up this course after my third year at Birbeck, this is a more appropriate approach because my focus will be on passing that course alone, without having to worry about other assignment due dates.
