Case study Fatema Akter Information Technology Student
ECDL Essentials Level 1
After 8 months of being off on maternity leave I was worried I had forgotten how to communicate. When I started my ECDL course last September I didn’t realise how it will change my level of confidence to start working. I was able to resume my work where my new skill has really benefited me and my employer who always turns to me when they are in need of an engaging leaflet, banner or newsletter. I really enjoyed being part of a fabulous group where all the members became very good friends. No matter how tired I was, the class was very relaxed. I am grateful to all my amazing teachers who encouraged me to work harder and achieve my goal.
