    Not easily, and I can't see why anyone would care either.

    Best bet is to get in contact with the test centre that you did the exams with and see if they kept a paper copy on file. Most centres had to keep a copy for audit prior to the beginning of the automated test system.

    Do you actually have an ECDL?

    If not, you can get one in a day. Its a pointless secretarial qualification pretending to be something more.

    Find a test centre and just do the damn thing. I can only assume whoever is asking for it actually thinks its a "computer qualification" though...

    If you can use a computer sufficiently to use boards, it won't. You do know what it entails? Piss around with Word, Excel and Access for a bit effectively. It is NOT an IT qualification by any stretch of the imagination, its basically a scam perpetuated on the basis that people don't check what it is in advance.

    Not sure if it is any use to you but you can do it online with ecollege.ie and book an exam at your local centre once finished the online modules, I know you said you needed it asap just might be easier if planning to do it that you could do it online.
