International Qualification in IT
Training
Gain
an Internationally recognised training
qualification, a ‘quality mark’ which
will acknowledge and certify your
training competence.
The CTP programmes, the
Certification Programme
and the
Development Programme,
are currently offered in a limited
number of training centres across the
country. Westgate Computer Centre was
selected as one of these centres in May
2006 and presented with the certificate
at the ICS-Skills conference in the RDS.

Benefits of CTP
There
is an increased reliance on IT in the
workplace which means that there will be
increased demand for IT trainers who
hold professional training
qualifications.
FAS
funding of up to 70% is available to
eligible individuals who wish to
undertake the CTP Programmes in Westgate
Computer Centre.
Holders
of CTP can be included on the FAS/EI
Register of Trainers
CTP is
an ECDL Foundation Certification
Programme.
Holders
of CTP ensure that the highest training
standards are adhered to in the training
organisations for which they work.
CTP is
a quality mark in IT training.
CTP is
an internationally recognised official
qualification.
Training organisations will be able to
evaluate and benchmark trainers’
competence.
CTP is
an improved standard of individual
training performance.
Despite the rigorous application of
international standards on all aspects
of administering the ECDL, there had,
until the development of CTP, been
little control over the provision of
classroom-based training by individual
trainers and training organisations.
With CTP, candidates can now evaluate
which training provider offers the best
training solution for their needs, as
certified, competent trainers promote
their services on the basis of the
quality of the IT training being
offered.
CTP defines an objective standard for
instructor led training, and provides a
mechanism for IT trainers to have their
competence recognised and certified.
The Certified Training Professional
qualification is the quality mark for IT
training, and offers candidates the
assurance of Professional training
delivery. Holders of CTP are
differentiated on the basis of quality
of their work, and have the benefit of
using the CTP logo and branding to
promote their training.
