To infinity and beyond - this course could give you the perfect pathway to a successful career in IT

At our Perth campus you'll gain the knowledge and skills to develop advanced Apps, Internet of Things, Big Data, database design, Cloud Applications Development, and cyber awareness using a variety of programming software and platforms such as PHP, Python and C#. You'll also be developing advanced programming skills with Cloud/mobile devices as this has been identified as a growth area by industry.

You will use current industry standards and emerging technology as you conduct LiveWorks projects with industry partners.

You'll be able to utilise project management techniques and develop advanced soft skills such as communication with clients through teamwork to align the end product with business needs. Independent thinking and problem-solving skills developed within your studies at Certificate IV level are further enhanced with real life client projects.

The Perth campus is excited to be offering this course also as part of a dual qualification to give you greater opportunities to advance your career and enhance your skill set. You can choose to enrol in one extra day per week, for two semesters, and graduate with the Diploma of Information Technology (Advanced Programming) plus the Diploma of Information Technology (Back End Web Development).

Our IT graduates are confident, job ready and sought after by industry because of the specific skills gained during their study at North Metropolitan TAFE and many find employment by the time they graduate.
