ITQs are the national vocational qualifications for people who use technology everyday as part of their jobs. They have been developed to be suitable for every company, large or small. Employers and staff have worked alongside the programme designers to make sure the qualification is up-to-date, flexible and relevant. ITQs are also highly valuable for those who need to know about technology in their lives outside work.

Companies and individuals can design their own ITQ so people can become expert in skills directly relevant to their business or interests, including any specialist or bespoke software that may be used.

Credit is given for any existing IT qualifications, so prior learning isn’t wasted.

There may be financial help available to get everyone started with ITQs.
