The qualifications are designed to meet the needs of those seeking vocational education in place of the traditional, theory-intensive, academic route.
They are available in the following subject areas: The OCR Level 2 Nationals in ICT have been developed to recognise learners' skills, knowledge and understanding of Information and Communication Technology functions, environments and operations.
The learners carry out a range of tasks that have been designed to recognise their achievements in a modern, practical way that is relevant to the workplace.
They do not certificate competence on the job but are work-related qualifications which will support progression to an NVQ once a candidate is in the workplace.
There are no timetabled exams for this qualification; candidates may complete units at a time that suits the centre.
