All Practical. No Essays.

  • Developing critical and creative-thinking skills
  • Finding solutions and deploying protection for end users against hacking
     

Choose your Own Job Role. 

IT is not a one-size-fits-all industry.  There are software programmers who work alone writing code in and others  who roll out and maintain the NBN.

Then there are IT Project Managers, whose sole job is to ensure teams with different IT skill sets work together to create a master network, or resolve systems issues. 

Last but not least, there are emerging fields in AI and Cyber Security, the list goes on...

In-Person Intensives

This course starts with a 2 day hands-on intensive in South East Queensland, where students get to work on hardware used by large multi-million dollar corporations, meet with their fellow course students, and build relationships for the team collaboration task.

Vocational training is not all about books; it's also about teamwork. One task is team collaboration to sit together, discuss solutions to a problem based on one's role and expertise in the organisation, and follow up after deployment to ensure the solution is a success.
