The Information Processing strand helps students develop knowledge and skills relating to computer technologies in six areas: systems management, text/data input, productivity software, applied processing, programming, and emerging technologies.
Each strand that a student completes is worth 1 Credit. Students enrolled in Information Processing are expected to receive a minimum 3 credits for a single semester and 5 credit for the entire year.
