European Computer Driving Licence: The European PC Standard

The European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL) is a European-wide qualification that enables you to demonstrate your competence in computer skills. It covers a range of specific knowledge areas and skill sets, broken down into seven modules. It is becoming the most widely recognized qualification, in the UK and Europe, for work-related computer use. Springer's study guides have been designed to complement the ECDL syllabus. Each study guide contains a set of clearly defined objectives that directly relate to the syllabus, and takes you through all the knowledge areas and skills required to understand and pass the corresponding module of the ECDL syllabus. Written in clear, jargon-free language with self-paced exercises and review questions throughout, these books provide you with an understanding of all the key elements which will prepare you for the ECDL tests. The seven study guide s are: Module 1 - Basic Concepts of Information Technology; Module 2 - Using the Computer & Managing Files; Module 3 - Word Processing; Module 4 - Spreadsheets; Module 5 - Database; Module 6 - Presentation; and Module 7 - Information & Communication.
