The candidate shall recognise the main issues related to the management of IT, such as selecting the appropriate technology, or choosing between in-house systems development or outsourcing. The candidate shall also be able to justify IT investments and know about some of the legal and ethical aspects of IT. He / She shall be aware of the requirement for a professional approach to project management and quality assurance. The candidate shall also appreciate the importance of team building and effective communication when presenting the case for change within the organisation.
EUCIP, The European Certification of Informatics Professionals, is a professional certification and competence development scheme aimed at IT practitioners and undergraduates.
EUCIP, like ECDL, was developed by CEPIS ( www.cepis.org), the Council of European Professional Informatics Societies.
EUCIP can offer added value to IT qualifications by the Pan-European dimension of the certification. The fact that EUCIP, which is a professional entry level qualification, is standardised across Europe gives holders an attractive and versatile certification, which will allow them to apply for IT jobs all across Europe, and also allow employers to recruit internationally
