Information Technology

For the Diploma in IT your course will look at 3 main areas:

1. Business: How organisations work and the role technology can play
2. People: How to work well with other people
3. Technology: How to create technology solutions

Plus a cross theme of multimedia, looking at how to design and develop a multimedia product for a particular audience.

If you’re doing a Higher or Advanced Diploma, you’ll look at the same themes but in more detail. Like planning and project management, the impact technology has on society, organisations and individuals with a global focus, plus how internet and mobile communications have transformed the business world.
