Best Answer

No. Computer literacy means ability to use new application programs with little or no instruction, and understanding basic concepts such as what a CPU does, what a file system is, and how data can be retrieved from a database. Some employers incorrectly use the term computer literacy as experience with common programs such as Word, Outlook, and Excel.
