Information About

Diploma In Digital Applications




The course consists of four units:

  • Using ICT

  • Multimedia

  • Graphics

  • ICT in Enterprise


Each module is assessed entirely using coursework.

Students who complete the Using ICT module alone receive an Award in Digital Applications (AiDA), which is equivalent to one GCSE or Standard Grade . Those who complete the Using ICT unit and any one of the other three units receive a Certificate in Digital Applications (CiDA), which is equivalent to two GCSEs or Standard Grades. Students who complete all four modules receive the full Diploma in Digital Applications (DiDA), which is equivalent to four GCSEs or Standard Grades.

Like many vocational courses, many question whether the DiDA is really as demanding as, and therefore really equivalent to, four GCSEs or Standard Grades.
