Assessment of progress, tests, exams

<p>This two-session course is not examined and does not result in a qualification. It is designed for the busy employee who wishes to increase their skill level within a compact time frame. </p>

Who the course is for / Previous experience, knowledge or qualifications

<p>There are no formal qualifications required to access this course. However, the level of this course means that delegates are likely to be graduates albeit not necessarily in a digital subject. Most learners will have previously taken our Excel 365 Intermediate course.  </p>

Materials and costs

<p>Delegates might want to bring a notebook and pen to write down key points and it would be helpful to have some form of computer at home or at work to practice on. </p>

Next Step

<p>Delegates could progress to our Level 2 Digital and IT Skills course which results in formal qualification. </p><p>Need support planning your next steps?
