About

NCC Education is an awarding organisation and global provider of British education offering complete education solution to a global network of Accredited Partner Centres in more than 50 countries. Originally part of the National Computing Centre, NCC Education was established as a computing initiative by the British Government in 1966. It began offering IT qualifications over 50 years ago and gradually expanded its higher education portfolio to include Business, English Language and Foundation level qualifications. In 1997, the organization became independent from the British government and established itsel as an awarding organisation of British qualifications.

Level 4 Diploma in Computing (RQF) (L4DC) makes up the first year of the NCC Education degree journey. The qualification is equivalent to the first year of an IT degree in the UK university system. Students will be given the opportunity to develop essential thinking and study skills, not only within the computing domain, but also within the context of business through a balance of academic and vocational subjects. The qualification will allow them to understand and enter the computing profession with the necessary knowledge expected within the industry and the ability to apply the skills to a range of IT-related functions.

On successful completion of the qualification students will be able to embark on NCC Education’s Level 5 Diploma in Computing (L5DC), which is equivalent to the second year of a UK Bachelor’s degree, transfer to a university or pursue a career in the IT industry.
