If you're looking for a challenging yet rewarding career in IT, then you should consider taking the ICS Introduction to Computer Programming course.

Computer Programmers are often seen as the linchpin of the IT industry. It's their job to write the detailed instructions (programs) that tell the computer what to do to perform certain functions.

Programmers are essential to a wide variety of projects in almost every industry - from banking to computer games to the space shuttle! So you could end up working almost anywhere you like in this dynamic, challenging and rewarding field.

Key Jobs

A quick look at the main job sites on the Net, or in any daily paper will confirm that the future belongs to programmers.

How does the paper-based distance learning method work?

To make studying as flexible and convenient as possible, all the paper-based courses are divided into bite-sized modules that consist of clearly identified study units. You work through each unit at your own pace. At the end of each unit there is a testpaper for you to complete and send to your tutor for marking. Your tutor will return this to you with your mark and any comments.

With all our courses you only move on a new module after successfully completing the previous one - and only when you feel ready. With useful tips and self-assessments at every stage, you'll find your confidence and ability increasing steadily as you progress.
