When Technical Skills Aren’t Enough

Sick of feeling STUCK in a dead-end job you hate, working for a company you’re ashamed of…?

The market for entry-level IT positions in Australia has become super competitive as more and more companies outsource jobs to countries where wages are lower.

When you’re competing against top talent in a global job market, an accredited qualification on its own is simply not enough.

To get noticed by credible employers you’ll need industry connections, insider insights and a professional portfolio.

The new Certificate IV in Information Technology from MySkills is the only accredited IT certification in Australia taught by full-time industry experts

We know what employers
want.

Future-Proof Your
Career

MySkills has designed and developed this certification in partnership with Australian entrepreneurs and business owners.

As well as practical, technical skills our full-time industry experts will show you how to package and present your IT skills in a way that potential employers find valuable.

You will learn indispensable skills that Australian companies cannot or will not outsource…

IT Industry Skills

As well as the most current and up-to-date technical trends, you’ll also learn supporting skills that make you more attractive to Australian employers.

Such as collaborating with remote teams, compliance, critical thinking and how to detect and solve technical problems independently.

Networking Skills

Cyber security continues to be an area of concern for Australian organisations.

By learning how to install and secure computer networks to keep them safe from cyber security attacks, you can be sure your job will never be sent offshore.

Programming Skills

As well as the most current and up-to-date technical trends, you’ll also learn supporting skills that make you more attractive to Australian employers.

Such as collaborating with remote teams, compliance, critical thinking and how to detect and solve technical problems independently.

Web Development Skills

Learn how to design and optimise websites for Australian companies and ensure they adhere to Australian industry standards and best practices regarding accessibility requirements.

Choose MySkills

A successful career in IT requires more than technical skills and a certificate…

You must have a solid grasp of fundamentals, recent and relevant skills, current knowledge of trends affecting the industry and be able to demonstrate a deep understanding of your chosen area of specialization.

To really thrive, you’ll also need transferable skills that Australian employers can’t or won’t send offshore — such as being able to hold difficult conversations, manage socially diverse teams and show empathy and understanding in stressful situations.

The problem is, credible employers won’t take you seriously without an accredited qualification and traditional education institutions aren’t able to stay current and relevant because their IT courses aren’t taught by experienced experts who work full time in the industry.

So you find yourself stuck in a dead-end job you hate working for a company you’re ashamed of.

Let’s change all that

MySkills believes in a robust, holistic approach to the notion of being employable and we are proudly disrupting the way workforce skills are being taught.

We understand how important it is to find work that is rewarding and fulfilling.

That’s why we developed our skills ecosystem — to balance both extrinsic and intrinsic motivations.

Extrinsic – because in the real world, you need financial security to buy things like food and shelter to support your family so you don’t have to rely on others.

Intrinsic – because we need to do meaningful work that matters in order to feel a sense of purpose, pride and belonging to our community.

We understand how important it is to find work that is rewarding and fulfilling
