Recommended Profiles

We recommend three ICDL Profiles - Base, Standard and Expert - each represents a different level of digital proficiency, and proof of the skill level that you have.

 

ICDL Base Profile

4 Base Modules

ICDL Base Profile is considered a certification at digital literacy level. It consists of 4 separate modules covering key ICT skills and knowledge areas that are a must have regardless what your role is in society. These set of skills are essential in that they enable you to develop more specialised skills and knowledge. Without these skills you will simply find it difficult to carry out everyday tasks.

 

ICDL Standard Profile

ICDL Standard Profile is similar to the previously known standard ICDL 7-module certification except it offers more flexibility. It comprises of the essential ICT skills afforded by the ICDL Base Profile plus 3 Standard Modules available from a wide range of modules, to help you certify a higher level of digital competence.
