Networking and Security

Our courses reflect the constantly expanding and evolving IT industry. This ensures you gain the most relevant knowledge and skills in planning, installing and maintaining computer networks as well as building internet/intranet infrastructure.

You will be equipped with the skills and knowledge to provide network support within an organisation and to design, install and manage networks and systems, including rectifying system faults, configuring IT components, network security and optimising system performance. You will also gain practical skills and knowledge on how to assess client needs in project management, email and gateway server deployment, security management, cloud services and e-business.

Cyber security in Australia is a small but fast growing sector of the IT industry and demand for cyber security services and jobs is expected to grow by 21 per cent according to Federal Government employment projections. This means that there is and will continue to be a growing demand for graduates with appropriate skills and knowledge.

North Metropolitan TAFE is offering qualifications in Cyber Security to meet the need for skilled personnel to help combat cyber threats to our businesses and services, our finances and our privacy and identity.
