The introductory diploma offers exciting content that’s modern, engaging, fit for purpose and suitable for the students in the digital world. Universities, employers and industry specialists have all contributed to create a course that allows pupils to gain the right combination of knowledge, understanding and skills required for those working in the 21st century. We follow the Application Developer Strand which we feel is the most dynamic and purposeful course for students. These topics give pupils the opportunity to work on exciting projects such as game and app design allowing students who wish to program an exciting and bespoke platform to showcase their skills alongside those pupils who have an artistic flair for design developing new ideas that could be the next big thing. We also focus on Cyber security as this is one of the biggest growth markets for jobs in the world. Unit 3 focusses on types of threats, how to deal with them and what action should be taken to make sure incidents don’t happen again. This unit gives pupils a fantastic start to an area that is extremely important in today’s digital world.
