Offers are issued by the CAO via email.

Hide-What are my career opportunities?
Industry has identified degree level (level 7) as often a minimum entry for many positions and this course would help any ICT related level 6 workers to upgrade their qualifications and skills to ordinary degree level. This course is suitable for people that are unemployed, returning to the workforce, workers that need to upskill and for recognising prior learning (RPL) for people that have been working in the IT industry for more than 10 years but don’t have a recognised third level qualification which limits their opportunity for advancement.
