Start Working Right After Matric
A thorough analysis and appraisal of the National CAT/IT curriculum by ICITP revealed that matriculants who passed CAT/IT possess fundamental IT skills that make them eligible for Entry Level Practitioner status in the IT industry, however until now there has not been any industry recognition for these skills, making it impossible for CAT/IT educated youths to find gainful employment.
Work Integrated Learning laboratory
Work Integrated Learning (WIL) is an opportunity for you to gain experience in your chosen career by completing an internship or project that contributes to your degree*. When you successfully complete a WIL placement course, it is counted towards your degree.

The ICT industry faces a critical shortfall of entrepreneurial and business skills and it does not have enough jobs for all of its experienced professionals.
