This course offers Unit Standard assessments. It is designed to give students a general grounding in a range of computer applications and their practical application in the workplace. Common topics covered are spreadsheets, databases, presentations, webpages, desktop publishing and basic computer programming.  These help a student learn and demonstrate the skills required for using computers at home, work or any community setting.
