An I.T Engineer is a person with a full understanding of every avenue of I.T, and is looking to be an Information, communications and technology specialist.

This is all about knowing both Programming and Networking, as I.T engineers help to meet their employer’s needs for computer hardware, software and networking tools. They work to develop, test, install, configure and troubleshoot computer hardware and software.

This more advanced combination of technical and programming skills gives the learner a wider range of I.T skills to qualify for more senior positions and higher paying job opportunities in any ICT field of expertise, with job titles such as Senior Developers, I.T Project Managers or Network Architects.*
