Hi all,

 

Has anyone tried ECDL for Schools? Currently looking at 4th Year learning options and found this on a Google search. Are there other training options available?

 

Thanks,

Steve

Not sure if you are looking for other ECDL training options or options other than ECDL training.

If you are looking for options other than ECDL I'd suggest Digital Creator http://www.digitalcreator.ie/

Hi John,

 

Is this suitable for 4th Year and is it exclusively available online?

 

Thanks,

Steve

Yes very suitable for transition year students.

Like ECDL, there are a number of modules. Students would normally do 4 modules to get a cert.

The applications used to complete the modules are installed on the local machine. All course notes and resources are accessed online through a Moodle site and each student has a username and password. The assignments are submitted for assessment within the Moodle environment and assessment is done by outside assessors.

Hi Steve, 

Ben here, we use Digital Creator in school and it is a brilliant course particularly for fourth years as it taps into multi media, sound, video animation and photography.  Give the website a good look and if you need more info let me know

I`m sorry I am coming late to this conversation but I have just discovered that we can no longer use third force in TY for ecdl, I want them to get the ecdl cert so do I have to go through the ICS now.

Hi Ben
I'm very interested in running Digital Creator and glad to see your comment on it being a brilliant course. I'm on a steep learning curve myself at the moment but would be grateful to come back to you in the future for more advice on the running of the course.
Regards
Maura
