PC Passport

Launched in early 2004, PC Passport is one of the fastest growing SQA qualifications. With over 30,000 candidates per year, it has become the 2nd most popular IT qualification in Scotland.

There are three levels in PC Passport:

• Beginner for those with little or no IT experience.
• Intermediate for those with some IT experience who, wish to improve their skills.
• Advanced for those who wish to consolidate their knowledge and cover an extended range of IT functions.

PC Passport is complemented, with a wide range of learning materials and assessments to support both the SQA centre and the learner. Links with strategic partners, Microsoft and Certiport, ensure PC Passport is aligned to internationally recognised vendor certifications like IC3 and Microsoft Office Specialist.

Other strategic partnerships with educational publishers Leckie & Leckie have produced a suite of learning materials to compliment the award at all levels.

Recently refreshed, PC Passport continues to provide relevant skills for the community and the workplace.

PC Passport offers the learner a genuine experience covering IT disciplines required to work in a modern world. It attracts ILA funding and is aligned to the National Occupational Standards for IT Users.
