One IT qualification. Four specialisations.
Everything AGIT teaches in information technology sits under a single national code, ICT60220. The four streams below are elective choices inside that one qualification, not four separate courses.
What the four streams actually change
All four streams award the same qualification: the Advanced Diploma of Information Technology, ICT60220. All four run 104 weeks and require the same 16 units — 6 core and 10 elective. All four cost the same. All four have the same entry requirements.
What changes is which electives you take, and therefore what you spend most of your time doing. That is a real difference and it is worth choosing carefully. It is not four different diplomas.
Cyber Security
The stream the EC-Council Academia partnership attaches to.
