Hear from some of our Tech course graduates
“I’ve deeply enjoyed the Software Engineering Transform course. I highly recommend this course to anyone who has decided to be job-ready in this field. My mentor has been an immense help throughout my learning process, as he’s always been willing to help, even after long live sessions or weekends when there’s no need to. The staff frequently asks for feedback, which makes me think they’re always looking for improvements, and that’s a good sign.”

Harold Torres Marino
Software Engineering Transform
“The thing I really found the most useful was how hands-on the course (and course content) was. Not only did we get to learn the theory behind what we were trying to achieve, but we got to put it into practice in our own environments and experiment with how the differences in the code appeared on the visual display, all under the guidance of our expert mentor. Ultimately this ended up providing me with a finished product (website) that was at a professional level and gave me the know-how to apply this knowledge to a broad range of situations in the future.”

“What a great 15 weeks! I've fallen in love with Data Analytics because of this course. It was sometimes difficult as a student who was completely new to the language and industry, but the support of my Mentor JP helped heaps with that aspect. I'm very proud of my achievements and the projects I was able to create, which I can now display in my portfolio!”

Some frequently asked questions
Cyber Security is the practice of protecting electronic information from unauthorised access or theft. As the world increasingly relies on technology, Cyber Security has become a top priority for businesses and individuals. There are many types of cyber threats, including viruses, malware, phishing scams, and hacking. To protect against these threats, Cyber Security Professionals implement countermeasures that eliminate, or at least drastically reduce the risk of cyber attacks. In a world where more and more businesses and individuals are relying on digital information, Cyber Security has become an essential part of keeping data safe.
With the rapid evolution of technology and the internet, the need for Cyber Security is more important than ever before. In Australia, there is a current shortage of Cyber Security Professionals, with a forecasted 30,000 additional Cyber Security workers needed by 2026 (CyberCX, 2022).
