Revisions to Digital qualifications

Last year, we revised our National Progression Awards (NPAs) in Digital Passport, Digital Literacy and Social Software. As part of these revisions, we changed the titles of the following NPAs:

• The Digital Passport NPAs are now titled ‘Digital Literacies’.
• The Digital Literacy NPA is now titled ‘Digital Skills’.

We have published a summary table  on our Digital Literacy blog that shows the new group award titles and codes, along with the new unit titles and codes for each qualification. Please refer to this table and ensure you use the correct group award codes and unit codes when searching for qualifications or when referring to them in any correspondence with us.

The previous versions of these qualifications will run alongside the new versions until July 2025.

For more details, please refer to the group award specification for each qualification. You can access them through the relevant NPA subject pages of our website.
