Overview

The ECDL is recognised as the standard definition of practical competence in Information Technology.  It is for anyone who wants to certify their computer skills according to a pan-Europ0ean industry standard.  Large multi-nationals have adopted the licence, setting it as the performance benchmark they expect from their employees.  It dispels any vagueness in your professed experience or in your job specifications.  You either have the licence or you don't.
