As Information & Communication Technology (ICT) has become an
essential and integrated part of today's living, people have to
show that they are able to use a computer and use various software
applications to process, print or send words, numbers, tables,
symbols and audio-visual information. You gain a great advantage in
the job market if you are ICT literate. And the best way to prove
competence in ICT is to have a qualification in computer
applications, needed by every business and organization. At a later
stage you may want to upskill yourself and undertake the Advanced
Qualifications, or a Specialized Qualification - ICDL provides this
learning pathway. ACDLE's Training Director, Mr. Aldric Brooks, has
over 16 years of experience as an I.C.T. Training in the United
Kingdom, a holder of the ICDL Expert status and has been involved
with the training and implementation this world-wide recognized
qualification for over 11 years in the UK. Ongoing projects at the
moment are the embedding of the ICDL into High School ICT curricula
(St Columbans College, Lingayen, Contact:

learning portal.
