It is important to note that there are currently two syllabus version of ECDL Advanced Word Processing and ECDL Advanced Spreadsheets that can contribute towards ITQ.

• Syllabus V1.0 does not map fully to the NOS content (the Word Processing and Spreadsheet units have some gaps) and will therefore require additional evidence that MUST be demonstrated.
• Syllabus V1.5 does map fully to NOS content.

Full details can be found in the BCS Gap Evidence Guide September 2007 (pdf file - 118 kb).
