How does the ICDL programme work?
To achieve an ICDL, the candidate must successfully pass one theoretical and six practical tests. When a candidate registers to start the ICDL certification process he/she receives a skills card on which his/her progress through the seven tests is recorded. When all seven modules are completed the candidate receives the ICDL certification. These tests can be attempted in any order and at any time and must be successfully completed within a maximum duration of three years. Each successfully completed test is endorsed on an ICDL Skills Card. Only an approved test centre can carry out testing and issue Skills Cards. This timeframe may be changed from time to time for specific programs or requirements. When tests for all seven modules are successfully completed and the Skills Card is endorsed by the test centre, it is sent to ICDL GCC Foundation and a personalised certificate (Licence) is issued.
