| This book has been approved by the ECDL Foundation (who set the syllabus, arrange the tests, approve courseware, training, and testing). It contains everything necessary to pass the Office 2000 track of ECDL, covering each of the seven modules in a simple, jargon-free way.
The European Computer Driving License (ECDL) is an internationally recognised certificate of end-user computing skills. It is currently being followed by close to a million people worldwide .In Ireland it has already been taken up by close to 2% of the population. Britain will almost certainly sign up a half million people this year.
To qualify for the license, candidates have to pass seven tests of PC knowledge and skill in the common business applications (word-processing, database, spreadsheets, presentations, Internet). The syllabus is set by the ECDL Foundation and applies equally in every country. It is widely used by training organisations to prove the quality of their training, and by employers to set a benchmark for recruitment and promotion.
