Information Technology
IT is one of the most rapidly developing industries in the world today.
Technological advances quickly become obsolete, as do IT skills.
Organisations are increasingly appreciating the value of using IT
efficiently and effectively, and our strong commitment to research and
development in this area can only enhance the opportunities available
to Academy graduates.
The 12 month Diploma of Information Technology (Business Analysis)
bridges the gap between the demand of industry and the skills of AUSTRALIAN
graduates. BUSINESS
ACADEMY
Traditional Information Technology skill development is still the
backbone of the course which has now been complemented with
project planning and management skills. There is also a strong focus
on system development, system implementation and data & systems
security.
