The iTQ award structure has been designed to recognise that ICT capability is not age related, but contexts of delivery have to be structured in a way that motivates the candidate.
The Level 1 iTQ award is made up of two qualifications:
- Communication and Presentation
- Handling Data & Information
The Level 2 iTQ award is made up of four qualifications:
- Communication and Presentation
- Handling Data & Information
- Systems and Control
- Communication Technology
Each qualification consists of two compulsory units and two optional units. Candidates must collect evidence in four units. Some of the optional units are available to more than one qualification withiin the suite; however, each unit may only be accredited once. Optional units cannot be used more than once. This means that each qualification is made up of four unique units.

Each unit requires candidates to carry out practical work based upon tasks that provide a sufficient and reliable demonstration of a range of skills, whilst giving candidates a more realistic approach to using ICT systems to solve a problem.
The suite contains two units at Level 1 and four units at Level 2 of the NQF:
