A Level ICT – Skills for the real business world

With so many ICT qualifications in the market, it can be difficult for learners, teachers and employers to know which one prepares the learner for a career in the real world.

The solution

OCR's A Level in ICT enables the learner to develop the essential skills needed to apply ICT in the modern place of employment.

Learners who achieve OCR's A Level in ICT will be confident in their ability to produce professional presentations and demonstrate strong project management skills through ICT, which will help make them desirable employees.

Learners who take this A Level can look forward to learning up-to-date skills on modern programmes that will set them apart from standard ICT courses which may focus on basic spreadsheet construction and software installation.

Better way of learning

Not only that, but learners will benefit from a more hands on approach to learning with the assessment being streamlined to include 40% coursework. This means that there are only two examinations, allowing the majority of the assessment to be a demonstration of skills developed.

This makes the OCR A Level ICT qualification unique in its approach to helping develop skills for the business world.
