The Diploma in IT will look at how organisations work and the role technology can play. Students will learn what different people in the industry do – as well as how to manage projects, design new business solutions, develop websites, manage networks and deliver IT support. They will also explore the use of technology in business, and learn how to create digital media solutions to meet requirements.

Creative and Media

The Diploma in Creative and Media teaches students how to master skills that are central to creative roles. They will learn how to think question, explore, create and communicate - and bring ideas to life through making, performing and doing.
