A leading IT publisher offers a complete solution for certifying basic computing skills
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA (October 4, 2002) — CCI Learning Solutions is now offering training courseware that prepares students and instructors for Certiport's Internet and Computing Core Certification (IC³) exams. Entitled the ABC's of IC³ Certification, this training text offers a flexible, modular approach to assist organizations preparing students, educators and workers to obtain this global validation for digital literacy. The ABC's of IC³ Certification, coupled with CCI methodologies and distribution rights for IC³, provides a turn-key solution for qualified academic and corporate organizations desiring to become Certiport Centers- testing centers that administer IC³ exams.
"CCI is excited to introduce our new ABC's of IC³ Certification courseware," said Bill Archibald, president of CCI Learning Solutions Inc. "Our material builds the skills that are essential for today's students, employees and employers to enter the digital economy. IC³ certified individuals have earned a global credential and have obtained proof of their computing knowledge and competency."
"CCI has demonstrated its commitment to extending the reach of the IC³ global standard for digital literacy," stated David Saedi, executive vice president for Certiport. "Their specific approach to courseware and experience in quality education offerings provides a valuable solution to our expanding list of Certiport partners."
A Modular Approach
The ABC's of IC³ Certification series offers a modular approach to the certification by featuring three training manuals, each one preparing the student for one IC³ exam. The manuals featured are: Module A - Computing Fundamentals, Module B - Key Applications and Module C - Living Online. The modular approach allows greater flexibility for instructors to incorporate the IC³ certification into their curriculum. With schools' and training centers' budgets in mind, the series is available with each title individually or as a bundle of all three manuals, allowing flexibility for making purchases.
In addition to distributing IC³ courseware, CCI enables qualified schools and campuses to become Certiport Centers. As an authorized center, an institution provides and maintains high standards for exam-taking and gives certification candidates instant, standardized validation of computer knowledge and skills. CCI offers a complete solution for implementing IC³ programs.
The IC³ Global Standard
An industry standard for measuring basic computer literacy for academia and the workplace, IC³ exam objectives were built by professional researchers, test developers, psychometricians and more than 270 subject matter experts (SMEs) in 19 countries -- all of whom contributed content and feedback and validated certification requirements. A student with IC³ certification not only has an understanding of computing fundamentals, key applications and online functionality, but also possesses the necessary foundation to excel into advanced desktop and technical application certifications. Organizations interested in obtaining more information about IC³ or other Certiport offerings should contact Certiport at 1-800-572-9250 or visit www.certiport.com.
