ITQ

If you’ve got IT qualifications, you’re an asset to any modern business. ITQ is your chance to learn new skills and gain valuable qualifications at the same time.

ITQ is a nationally-recognised programme, designed by employers to meet the needs of today’s businesses. It is tailor-made for you, taking into account all your existing IT skills and any qualifications you may already have, such as the European Computer Driving Licence, CLAiT Plus, New CLAiT or Microsoft Office Specialist.

The ITQ Planner course will help you choose what to learn, depending on the IT skills you need to do your job more effectively. You can cover everything from word processing, spreadsheets, email and the Internet to wider issues such as IT Security and IT Maintenance.

The Benefits of ITQ:

• ITQ lets you show your current employer – and any future employer! – that you have reached a recognised, national standard in IT
• ITQ helps you to improve your IT skills and use IT more effectively in your job
• ITQ lets you fill any IT skills gaps you have quickly and easily while you work
• ITQ is flexible. You choose which skills you need to develop to help you in your own particular job and then follow a tailor-made programme that meets your individual needs
• Your own workplace experience and any previous IT qualifications you have can count towards an ITQ award
