Award in Information Technology and Study Skills

The Award in Information Technology and Study Skills provides students with an academic and professional foundation in all aspects of digital society, internet technology, the WWW, and computer hardware and software. It covers academic writing, communication, and digital skills, as well as effective study practice and career planning. Students are encouraged to develop a career plan and supported in their aspirations. The foundation in essential areas of information technology is supplemented with broader-based knowledge and skills to enable students to proceed with their studies on information technology and/or related areas at higher education levels (MQF/EQF Levels 5 and 6) and, thus, pursue a career in information technology.
