I've done the ECDL "basic" set of exams, and as Dodger says they are quite easy, but useful to have on your CV. The ECDL advanced word processing was much more challenging, but in a practical way, not pointless questions but real practical examples to work through.

I'm currently doing the CIW as home study (no lectures, and relatively cheap). This is another recognised qualification (I hope!) unlike Learning Tree (they produce their own certificates).

One thing I've learned is that you can never sit still when it comes to IT, keep learning and adding to the CV. Even if you think your job is secure today, tomorrow is another day.
