Details

We have developed these requirements with the intention that digital functional skills qualifications fulfil the following purposes, which are in line with those set out by the Secretary of State. Digital functional skills qualifications should provide –

  • reliable evidence of a learner’s achievements against content that is relevant to the workplace and real life;

  • assessment of a learner’s knowledge and skills as well as their ability to apply these in different contexts; and

  • a foundation for progression into employment or further education and develop skills for everyday life.
