The Certificate III in Information Technology program offers a blend of
foundation skill sets and knowledge in core ICT areas coupled with the
opportunity for further insight into specialisation with units covering topics
such as introductory-level programming techniques, IP ethics and privacy of
information, diagnostic testing, and client service.
The program is designed to deliver entry-level vocational
outputs in areas such as animation, basic cloud computing, basic cyber
awareness, digital media skills, generalist IT support services, networking,
programming, systems and web development (based on unit selection).
The course recognises that students with an interest in pursuing ICT at a Certificate III level inherently have a strong foundation of basic skills and understanding of operating within the digital domain, and IVET’s units are specifically designed to scaffold upon this knowledge base.
Like the Certificate II, the program composition can easily be customised to exclude and include certain units (permissible substitute electives) to create a particular flavour or specialisation the school and student cohort may require.
