Let's Talk Digital

Qualifications to inspire digital curriculum innovation

The Government’s ‘Essential Digital Skills Framework’ (2019) states that within two decades, 90% of jobs will require some digital proficiency, yet 11.3 million people lack basic digital skills.

Nine out of ten jobs involve the use of computers. So how are you going to meet the growing demand for digital skills?

Essential Digital Skills Qualifications Progress Update: OCN London’s Essential Digital Skills qualifications are currently undergoing technical evaluation by Ofqual. We have developed Essential Digital Skills qualifications at both Entry Level 3 and Level 1. They will be available for delivery in the autumn subject to Ofqual approval.

We have mapped our existing Digital Skills qualifications to the Department for Education’s new Essential Digital Skills Framework.
