This qualification (Cambridge Technical Introductory Diploma in IT) is not just about being able to use computers. Employers have told us that they need people who are able to help them develop their systems, or the systems for their customers, and use IT as a tool to analyse data and develop applications. Therefore, this qualification is designed to give students a range of specialist knowledge and transferable skills in the context of applied IT, providing them with the opportunity to enter an apprenticeship, move directly into employment, or progress to a related Higher Education course.
You must meet the specific requirements for the subject and, as a minimum, achieve at least 5 GCSEs at level 5 or above, including English and Maths.
This qualification is equally split between coursework and examination units with one exam (25%) being taken at the end of Year 12 and the remaining exam (25%) at the end of Year 13. The three coursework units will be moderated at various times throughout the two years with the weighting equally split between them, accounting for the remaining 50%.
