Learning objectives
The course aims to provide good knowledge of computer use for both study and work. The aspects most closely linked to the legal sector (for example, drafting a thesis in law, finding legal precedents and normative references, the editing of legal proceedings and knowledge of essentialpaths in future “data transmission processes”) will be framed in the syllabus, at European level, to pass the ECDL (European Computer Driving Licence) c.d. test. This will help students to prepare for the official ECDL exam in one of the accredited test centres.
