JUST to prove that you can have your cake and eat it too, the Swindon-based British Computer Society commissioned this PC look-a-like pastry to celebrate five years of providing its IT qualification to employers nationwide.
The giant computer-shaped cake, enjoyed by the BCS's 200-strong workforce at its headquarters in Sanford Street, was created to mark the success of the ECDL (European Computer Driving Licence) program, which enables employers to assess individual employees' IT literacy.
Pete Bayley, director of ECDL, said: "Since establishing ECDL in the UK in May 1998, the qualification's success has far exceeded our expectations.
"In 1998 we had just 150 test centres with 1,200 candidates registered, and now we're on target to reach a million registrations by the end of the year."
Current clients include the National Health Service, the MoD, the Cabinet Office, HSBC, Sainsbury's and Cadbury's.
