NPA Digital Media units are now available

I received notification this morning that the revised units that are part of the refreshed NPA Digital Media have now been published. Six revised units are available for download.

  1. HW4W 44 Digital Media: Audio (SCQF Level 4)
  2. HW4W 45 Digital Media: Audio (SCQF Level 5)
  3. HW4Y 44 Digital Media: Moving Images (SCQF Level 4)
  4. HW4Y 45 Digital Media: Moving Images (SCQF Level 5)
  5. HW4X 44 Digital Media: Still Images (SCQF Level 4)
  6. HW4X 45 Digital Media: Still Images (SCQF Level 5)

Please note that these units are hierarchical (the Level 5 unit provides automatic certification for the corresponding Level 4 unit – in case learners need to “drop down”).

I’m pleased with these units. We’ve tried to make them more up-to-date, more flexible and reduce assessment — and I think that we’ve done that. These units will (eventually) replace the existing units but we’ll tell you more about that in a future post.

The NPA Digital Media is being finalised and will be available to centres from January. Please contact Emma for more information.
