Program Details
Over the last couple of decades, the IT industry has undergone a transformation as technology has permeated all areas of business. In most organizations, IT has evolved from a support department into a key enabler of business strategy and competitiveness, applying digital solutions to business problems.
The Information and Communication Technology in Business program is a hybrid qualification designed to address the business need for multi-skilled individuals possessing IT, business, and interpersonal skills required for the 21st-century digital economy. The ICT program has been structured to provide learners with a wide range of options encompassing IT, software and systems, infrastructure, and business.
Students begin with essential elements of business: communication and presentation skills, accounting, and an overview of the functional areas of business. Foundations of technology are also integrated into the learning path to build skills in copywriting, user experience design, spreadsheets, databases, e-commerce applications, and project management.
To advance the foundational skills and knowledge, students also learn about various representations of technology that are manifest in today’s digital economy, from its infrastructure (networks, cloud computing, mobile technology, and cyber resilience) to digital marketing fundamentals and social media in business, and an introduction to agile development and software development.
The program includes a co-op placement to apply the knowledge and skills gained in class, allowing students to gain work experience in a wide range of occupations related to the various ICT aspects of today’s businesses. This helps students determine their specific career paths in the noted and other ICT areas of business.
The schedule and program end date are subject to change due to the student’s academic performance, course availability, academic breaks, additional electives, and study permit status.
