ICT60220 – Advanced Diploma of Information Technology
The Advanced Diploma of Information Technology is Austra College’s flagship ICT course, designed for students with some IT exposure who want to move into senior technical or leadership roles. Students build capability across advanced data management, cyber security, network engineering, systems development, and IT project and business management.
Rather than a generic computer course, this information and communication technology course is a specialist qualification — students build advanced, job-ready technical skills across these areas, using the same tools and platforms seen in professional IT environments.
Career Outcomes After an Information Technology Course
An ICT course opens pathways into a wide range of IT Careers, though the exact position you’re ready for depends on your specialisation, practical experience, and the employer’s requirements.
| Career Role | Related Specialisation |
|---|---|
| Network Administrator | Network Engineering |
| Cyber Security Analyst | Cyber Security |
| Systems Analyst / Developer | Systems Development |
| IT Project Coordinator | IT Project Leadership |
| Telecommunications Engineer | Network Engineering |
| Senior Technical Officer | Any specialisation + experience |
A qualification builds the practical and theoretical foundation employers look for, but most technical and senior roles are built through a combination of study and real workplace experience over time.
