Digital and IT Skills - Award

This course is for those who want to develop and extend their digital and IT skills to prepare for different roles in the digital and creative industries, such as software and programming, network support and digital design.

The course is also designed for job roles in other industries where specific digital and IT skills are required, such as finance, marketing, machining, and manufacturing.

The qualification includes a mandatory unit along with optional units that relate directly to the skills, knowledge and behaviours expected by employers and cover a wide range and use of different digital technologies, systems and software.

Please be prepared to provide your residency documents such as a passport, EU citizen ID card, UK Birth Certificate or Biometric Card. If you have been in the UK for less than 3 years or have entered the UK with a visa you will need to provide evidence that you are eligible to study in the UK - your visa, your biometric card that covers the duration of your course or any relevant home office documents to support your residency should all be provided. If you’re an EU, EEA or Swiss citizen we will need to see evidence of 'Pre-Settled' or 'Settled-status' documents. Also for funding purposes we would need to see evidence of payslips if working (within the last 3 months). If you are receiving benefits (e.g JSA, ESA, Universal Credit (UC), Housing benefits etc. please provide evidence of this).

Upon successful completion of the course you can progress into further study in this area.
