The European Computer Driving License ECDL (European Computer Driving License) is a user certificate as proof of comprehensive practical computer knowledge. Large multinational companies (such as ABB, Volvo, Tetra Pak, Siemens, Unilever) and scientific institutions such as the Free University of Berlin have introduced this standard for their employees. The ECDL is now recognized in more than 145 countries. Therefore the name has changed to International Computer Driving License ICDL (International Computer Driving License). Both terms – ECDL and ICDL – are used interchangeably.ISE language and vocational training center – your certified training and examination center in Amberg and Sulzbach-Rosenberg!
