ALISON ABC IT-1, our free online IT skills training course, introduces the learner to the very basic concepts of IT and teaches how computing is an everyday feature of life and work.

ABC IT-1 introduces the concept of the digital world or the 'digital age', outlining the opportunity and practicalities of e-mail, online business and e-commerce. The unit presents basic IT training concepts of how to work safely with computers and the legal matters relating to the computer world. It also introduces the learner to the computer itself, both hardware and software, and the key concepts of information technology in general.

Finally, ABC IT-1 introduces the learner to the online world: web browsers, e-mail, web addresses, bookmarking, messaging and practical lessons on how to manage e-mail. As with all ALISON courses, ALISON ABC IT-1 is a free course available to all registered learners on ALISON.
