enterprises of properly trained staff, to the upgrading of the quality
of the manpower in our country, to the increase of the employment
prospects of the youth of our country and to the satisfaction of
specific needs of Cypriot Enterprises and Organisations on the basis
of the Cypriot particularities and priorities.
From 2003 the new automated examination system covers the following
subjects:
1. Wordprocessing
2. Spreadsheet
3. Presentations
4. Databases
5. Use of Internet and Electronic Communication
6. Computer Essentials
7. Computer Fundamentals
The Chamber exams are addressed to both working people as well
as to students and are recognised for recruitment purposes by thousands
of enterprises in Cyprus, including banking and semi - state organisations,
large enterprises, insurance companies, e.t.c.
