Information and Communication Technology (ICT)

ICT opportunities include jobs working with computer and communication systems. As an Apprentice you could be operating the system, or could be involved in its development and application. There are also jobs in maintenance and installation. Whatever your position, you'll be working with computers and related communication equipment in your workplace, or be part of a team that supplies ICT solutions to other organisations. Whichever role you choose, you'll be using technology to improve performance, working with others to develop effective systems. ICT also includes people who specify, install, maintain and support hardware and software as well as those who create and test systems. The ICT industry is a very challenging, fast changing and exciting sector to work in. As an Apprentice you will be trained how to use various software packages as well as how systems work. The range of industries and organisations you could work for is very wide.
