=​Welcome to the wiki pages for Higher Education students at Petroc=

These pages will give you access to some pre-course activities and tasks to help you get started on your course right away   From the very beginning of your Higher Education course you should be expecting to use computers. Task 1 below is a short questionnaire about your level of IT proficiency. Please help us by filling this in, so we can put appropriate support in place.

You may already have a high level of IT proficiency, but if you feel out of practice, are new to using information technology, or have skill gaps that need filling, here are some links to practice exercises and online IT training, so that you can get started over the summer.
