The Computer Studies Programs share a common first semester then allow students to branch into different, but related, streams depending upon their career interests. First term course work includes mathematics, communications, operating systems and applications, and programming. During the second term, students split into the General Studies or the Application Support streams.
Some courses are again shared but the majority specialize in one area.
Application Support students graduate at the end of this term with a certificate while the General Studies students may also exit with a general certificate or carry on for an additional year to receive a diploma. The third semester on each year will be reserved for responses to specialized industry or client-driven requests for computer training. This may be in the form of short, intensive courses for specific clients or alternative offerings, eg., evening classes for part-time students. Program Content Information Technology is changing rapidly. The content of these programs is constantly under review and re-evaluation.
