Foundation in Information Technology
This foundation course teaches practical technology skills for people without A-levels or those avoiding massive student debt. You'll learn basic programming, computer systems, and digital communication through hands-on projects rather than theory. The coursework includes building websites, understanding networks, and cybersecurity basics. Most students finish in 12 months and can either enter tech jobs or progress to higher qualifications. It's accredited via our partner Qualifi, so it's recognized by universities and employers. Success depends on consistent practice and actually enjoying problem-solving with technology.
