Certificate IV in Information Technology (Data Science and AI)
Set yourself for an information technology career of the future, with skills and knowledge relevant to a range of ICT roles — focusing on data science and the application of artificial intelligence (AI) for technology solutions.
This course will give you skills and knowledge required for a range of information and communications technology (ICT) roles in a variety of work contexts. It has a particular focus on data science, and the application of artificial intelligence (AI) for technology solutions including:
- database development: interpreting specifications, technical designs and flow charts, modifying software applications, constructing technical specifications from models and testing, and writing technical documents;
- database maintenance: managing, cleaning, storing and verifying organisational data, and evaluating compliance with internal and external data ethics regulations and legislation;
- programming: building, testing and applying basic object-oriented language skills, user interfaces and software developments; and
- systems administration support: implementing maintenance procedures and support to help troubleshoot system applications.
Completion of this nationally recognised and accredited qualification may provide credit towards a relevant higher level qualification or university degree, should you wish to pursue further study in this field.
