ITQ
A flexible qualification in IT, for IT Users and IT Technicians.
ITQ (User)
ITQ has been designed by employers to meet the needs of today's businesses. No two organisations are the same. The way they use IT is different; the IT skills of each employee are different. ITQ/SVQ for IT Users will ensure that employers get the right person for the right job by equipping individuals with relevant and effective IT user skills.
Mercia Partnership delivers the ITQ on many employers' premises. We help people improve their skills and assess them to National Standards certified by City & Guilds.
The ITQ User qualification covers a variety of topics including:
- Operations a computer
- Word Processing
- Spreadsheets
- Internet/Intranet
- Databases
- Bespoke Systems
All NVQ provision now requires the completion of a Level 1/2 Literacy qualification.
