Description

Digital Skills Certification: Assess, Practise and Certify

Prepare for the digital skills assessment test and have your level formally recognised through certification

  • 0.21 days — 1.5 h
  • In-person or virtual
  • All levels
  • Up to 6 participants

Digital skills are expected everywhere yet rarely evidenced: everyone claims to be comfortable with email, a spreadsheet or a shared file space without being able to demonstrate it. For a job application, an internal move or a skills record submitted to an employer, that absence of proof becomes a genuine obstacle.

A short virtual session to discover how the digital skills assessment test is run, practise on the domains assessed and then sit the certification. The time is devoted to becoming familiar with the test environment, to a practice series corrected live, and to the assessment itself.

Learning objectives

  • Identify the digital skill domains covered by the assessment test
  • Become familiar with the test environment and its instructions
  • Practise on questions close to those of the actual assessment
  • Sit the certification under the prescribed conditions
  • Identify the domains to consolidate from your results report

What makes this programme different

The session combines a corrected practice series with the actual sitting of the test
The short virtual format avoids blocking out a full day
The practice questions mirror the domains assessed on the day of the test
