ISTE Affiliation and Endorsement for ICDL Program
ALISON IT TRAINING - ISTE APPROVED
ICDL Obtains ISTE Affiliation and Endorsement
The International Society for Technology in Education has determined that the ICDL program is ISTE-aligned.
ISTE has determined that ICDL certification clearly supports the implementation of the ISTE National Educational Technology Standards (NETS) and prepares participants to substantially meet both the NETS-T (NETS for Teachers) and NETS-S (NETS for Students) initiatives.
ICDL awards a "Driving License" to participants who successfully complete all seven of the assessment modules. An ISTE review of the assessment modules determined that successful completion of all seven modules assesses:
- NETS-T performance indicators I.A. and V.C.
- NETS-S performance indicators 1A and 1B
- NETS National Adoption, Adaptation and Alignment
National Education Technology Standards (NETS-T and NETS-S)
ISTE’s NETS describe what students, teachers, and administrators should know and be able to do with technology to improve educational outcomes. ISTE’s NETS are scalable, evidence-based educational technology standards with broad application around the globe. More than 90% of all states in the Union use NETS or a NETS derivative for educational technology planning.
ALISON is an approved ICDL training partner. The ICDL-US Organization proudly displays its designation as an ISTE 100 Member. The International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) completed its review of all seven modules of the ICDL-US Assessment on October 10, 2003, and determined that successful completion of the Assessment clearly supports implementation of the ISTE National Educational Technology Standards (NETS) in a specific, carefully reviewed and documented manner.
