Whether you've been weighing up a move into cyber security for a while or only just started looking, this is the entry-level way in. It's the nationally recognised certificate behind help desk, ICT support and junior security roles. Twelve months, online, at your own pace, with no formal prerequisites. You finish able to keep devices, networks and data safe, with a qualification to show an employer.
You need to be 17 or older with sound reading, writing and maths. The course starts at entry level and builds from there.
ICT30120 is nationally recognised training, so your certificate is recognised across Australia, not only by the college that taught it.
Online, open 24/7, and self-paced over twelve months. You can also fast-track and finish sooner.
Junior Security Analyst, ICT Support Officer, ICT Technician. These are the first roles on the security side of IT, where the job is keeping other people's work safe.
Watching for threats and passing on what you find.
Keeping devices patched, safe and working.
Helping staff work safely with company data.
Roles where these skills are useful, not promised outcomes. Every role and employer is different, and some ask for more study or experience.
Twelve units in three streams, each one about keeping something safe.
This certificate puts security into an IT qualification from the first stream: the devices people use, the organisation around them, and your own safety online.
All three streams carry security: securing client devices, securing an organisation, and online security. You graduate with an IT qualification that already points at security work.
You learn to identify and report online security threats and to handle personal and workplace information securely, the everyday work of a support desk.
Trainers coach you one-on-one, with mentors and a student support team at every step, so a hard unit does not stop you.
