Approach to learning and assessment

The Certificate IV in Information Technology program is 1 year full-time of study.  

As students are required to undertake practical applications for many of the production units, the volume of learning covers practical work within the laboratory environment, practice of technical skills, and industry familiarisation, as well as the completion of industry-ready simulated WIL projects. 

Students will participate in their learning experience through:

  • Interactive presentations, labs, and tutorials
  • Assessments 
  • Simulated industry activities
  • Work Integrated Learning (WIL)
  • Workshop activities
  • Structured prescribed reading
  • Projects and assignments
  • Prescribed follow-up activities
  • Discipline practice 

During these classes, you will complete a range of projects. These projects are designed to ensure you consistently complete the project to the industry standard throughout your studies. 

Assessment for Certificate IV in Information Technology consists of a range of methods including projects, assignments, teamwork, role-plays and knowledge tests. The assessments for this program focus on consistent demonstration of your skills and knowledge over a period of time to a range of customers or clients.

Work integrated learning

RMIT University is committed to providing you with an education that strongly links formal learning with professional or vocational practice.  As a student enrolled in this RMIT University program, you will:

  • Undertake and be assessed on structured activities that allow you to learn, apply and demonstrate your professional or vocational practice. 
  • Interact with industry and community when undertaking these activities. 
  • Complete these activities in real work contexts or situations. 

In addition, these interactions and work contexts provide distinctive sources of feedback to you to assist your learning.  Any or all of these aspects of a WIL experience may be simulated.

In this program, you will be doing a specific course(s) that focus on work-integrated learning (WIL). You will be assessed on professional or vocational work in a workplace setting (real or simulated) and receive feedback from those involved in your industry.
