The International Computer Driving Licence (ICDL) concept is a global computer literacy initiative developed to raise the level of knowledge about Information Technology (IT) and increase the level of competence in using personal computers and common computer applications for all the citizens of the world.
Owned and co-ordinated by The European Computer Driving Licence Foundation Limited (ECDL-F) , a non-profit organisation based in Dublin, Ireland, the ICDL is an internationally recognised, vendor-neutral certificate which demonstrates a person’s competence in computing knowledge and skills in accordance with international standards. ECDL (European Computer Driving Licence) and ICDL are synonymous, and identical standards apply to both.
The ICDL GCC Foundation is appointed and licensed by (ECDL-F) as the sole body to implement and disseminate the program in the Gulf Region and Iraq with the support of the region's leading educational institutions and ministries.
The ICDL GCC Foundation's mission is to enable proficient use of Information and Communications Technology that empowers individuals, organisations and society, through the development, promotion and delivery of quality certification programmes
