Bringing digital literacy training directly to your desktop!
With travel costs rising each year, it is becoming cost prohibitive for many employers to send an employee to a location to receive computer training. Employers are continually looking for new cost-effective ways to train workers so they are more productive using computer hardware, software, networks, and the Internet. AVTEC’s Business & Office Technology Department is providing industry specific digital literacy training to business and industry around the state—without an organization's employees ever leaving their workplace! 

Why get IC³ Certified?
You've spent time and money on training and education for a good reason—to move ahead. So how do you prove to others that you have the necessary computing knowledge and skills to be successful? The answer is IC³ certification. IC³ certification will immediately identify you as someone who has what it takes to succeed on the job.

What do you mean digital literacy and what is IC³?
Digital literacy is vital to the success of individuals in today’s workplace. Exposure to computers does not equal understanding. The Internet and Computing Core Certification (IC³) program is a global, validated, standards-based training and certification program for critical computing and Internet knowledge and skills. IC³ ensures you have the knowledge and skills required for effective use of computer hardware, software, networks, and the Internet. IC³ is your starting place to advancement in employment, education, or other certification programs.

Taught by Authorized IC³ Program Instructors
IC³ Authorized Program Instructors will deliver the three classes utilizing advanced VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) in live online sessions right to your office, school or home computer. Without you walking out your door! This training prepares you to pass and earn the Internet and Computing Core Certification or IC³ industry certification.

What do I need to train online?
All that is needed to train online is a computer with an Internet connection and a microphone and speakers (a headset with a microphone works best). Training can be conducted using Windows, Mac, or Solaris computers. Participants meet in live sessions with authorized IC³ instructors. Sessions are also recorded and can be reviewed later by an employer or employee.
