Qualification Description

This qualification reflects the role of individuals in a variety of information and communications technology (ICT) roles who have significant experience in specialist technical skills, or managerial business and people management skills. Individuals in these roles carry out complex tasks in a specialist field, working independently, leading a team or a strategic direction of a business. They apply their skills across a wide range of industries and business functions, or as a business owner (sole trader/contractor).

The skills required for these roles may include, but are not restricted to:

• telecommunications network engineering: managing logistics, organisational specifications, regulations and legislative requirements across network projects.

Academic Pathway

Training is delivered in stages which correspond to AQF Levels VI. The preferred pathway for a qualification is for students to complete the requirements of the previous level qualification before progressing to the next level – thereby achieving more than one qualification. Applicants without the previous level qualification will be considered if they have relevant qualification and/or vocational experience. We aim to equip our graduates with the necessary skills and knowledge to enable them to successfully satisfy the demands of the workplace.

On completion of this qualification, candidates may undertake a range of other Advanced Diploma qualifications from the ICT Training Package or any other training package to further enhance their career opportunities in their chosen field. Candidates may also choose to seek entry into an undergraduate degree such as a Bachelor of Information Technology at an Australian Higher Education Provider (subject to the Higher Education Provider’s course entry requirements).

Coupled with substantial employment experience (more than two years) graduates of this course may be eligible to gain entry into a number of post-graduate courses such as a Graduate Certificate in Information Technology/System, Graduate Certificate in Technology or Master of Information Technology.
