DIRECTIONSThe ICT Career Map for Students outlines pathways into the exciting world of Information and Communications Technology (ICT). Technology based careers are growing in every industry and every country across the world. There are hundreds of job roles within the ICT industry, and job opportunities are constantly growing and evolving. Broadly speaking, the ICT Industry can be grouped into the following four key career disciplines.
1. Content & Design (Application)
2. Technology Services
3. Business Services
4. Product Development
The ICT Career Wheel and Career Map outlines some of the ICT job roles and tertiary educational pathways for the ICT industry. New technologies are always being invented and applied, so there really is no limit as to where the ICT industry will be tomorrow. No matter which ICT discipline interests you, developing skills in science, technology, engineering or mathematics (STEM) can be a helpful foundation. Your imagination really is our future.
Australia has a proud history of valuing innovation, creativity and entrepreneurship. The ACS Foundation supports Australia’s technology future by providing educational scholarships that help grow Australia’s future ICT leaders. The ACS Foundation provides Work Integrated Learning scholarships to ICT students to help them successfully move from their studies into rewarding technology careers.
