Computer Appreciation (Introduction)

Course summary

The Introductory Diploma is equivalent to one A-level equivalent - to achieve this, you must pass a total of six units consisting of the two mandatory examined units and three coursework units. An AS equivalent qualification - Cambridge Technical Certificate in IT – is available if only the two examinations are passed. Grading is based on a points system, where the total accumulated points dictates the final grade. The table below identifies the UCAS points for the qualifications. The OCR Level 3 Cambridge Technical Introductory Diploma in IT builds on knowledge and skills developed in KS3 and KS4. If you have not studied Computing or ICT at KS4 you can still access this course, as long as you have a good level of general computer skills, capability, and commitment developed from other KS4 courses. A further important requirement would be the ability to time manage and organize yourself and your work.
