1 Advanced Diploma of Computer Systems Technology (ICT60515) This document provides the details for the Advanced Diploma of Computer Systems Technology. To use the study plans in this document you must apply for and receive an offer for the Advanced Diploma of Computer Systems Technology. There are a number of possible study plans with the recommended study plan having the following key features: The Advanced Diploma contains a combination of Networking, Programming and Web Development skills. If you are only interested in one field of specialisation, such as Networking, Programming or Web Development this is NOT the qualification for you. You should refer to our specialised Diplomas, in particular: Advanced Diploma of Network Security Diploma of Website Development Diploma of Software Development The recommended study plan will take a new student with previous fundamental IT experience (such as would be gained with a Certificate II in IT) but no specialised IT experience 2 years to complete. This plan includes the necessary specialised underpinning skills and knowledge for the Advanced Diploma component. In the Networking content there is a focus on the CISCO CCNA curriculum, an introduction to Network Security and Windows Server Administration. In the Web content there is a focus on using HTML5 and JavaScript to develop dynamic web pages, and mobile website development. In the Programming content there is a focus on mobile application development with a HTML5 development subject and, an Android mobile development subject with Java. WorkReady This course is subsidised under WorkReady and is eligible for VET Fee Help. There will be an upfront payment required for this course. There are eligibility criteria for receiving WorkReady subsidy and VET Fee Help. ALL STUDENTS IRRESPECTIVE OF PREVIOUS STUDIES WILL BE REQUIRE TO DO THE CORE SKILLS PROFILE FOR ADULTS (CSPA) BEFORE THEY ARE ELIGBLE FOR WORKREADY SUBSIDY. Pricing will be dependent on your selected study plan. Please contact the IT Studies department for clarification of your pricing options.

2 Assumed Skills and Knowledge This is not an entry level qualification. There are assumed skills and knowledge that are required to commence at this Advanced Diploma level. These could have been gained in a number of ways: Completed the Certificate IV in Technology; or Other study equivalent to it (refer to the table below); or Have work experience and knowledge equivalent to it (refer to the table below). If you do not have these assumed skills and knowledge you will need to use a study plan that contains subjects listed or do the qualification listed above. If you need to complete all of these assumed skills you would be adding another year of study.

5 Subject Descriptions Subject 5NIST 5EWD 5JAM 5DWS 5JAWB 5MWD 5CRS 5CSN 5CNW 6DIS 6EWS 6SIMP 6MITP Description This subject will provide students with a solid foundation of various networking topics allowing students to gain a strong understanding of Windows Server administration concepts This subject covers the essential Microsoft Server skills for students who are studying the Advanced Diploma of Computer Systems Technology. Concepts from such as how to install a server, the various roles of a server, and how server performance and maintenance impacts a network will initially be studied. This subject covers creating simple databases using MySQL, writing PHP applications to-provide webbased interfaces, processing data, querying MySQL databases, generating web-based reports. These skills will be learnt in the context of common e-commerce applications such as, automated mailing lists, product catalogues, shopping carts, payments systems. This subject also covers securing the web applications using encryption techniques. Builds on 4BJA by looking at collections, GUI development and database connectivity but in a mobile environment using ANDROID. Eclipse is used as the IDE. This subject builds the skills and knowledge required to develop web applications and services using ASP.Net and XML. This subject covers the development and deployment of J2EE applications. It includes, Servlets, JSP and JSF. Netbeans is used as the IDE. This subject covers the use of Bootstrap, Windows Azure, WordPress, HTML5, CSS 3 and JavaScript to create and host mobile websites It focuses on the current trends in non-platform specific mobile applications and utilises HTML5, CSS 3 and JavaScript to create mobile websites This course describes the architecture, components, and operations of routers and switches in a small network. Students learn how to configure a router and a switch for basic functionality. By the end of this course, students will be able to configure and troubleshoot routers and switches and resolve common issues with RIPv1, RIPng, single-area and multi-area OSPF, virtual LANs, and inter-vlan routing in both IPv4 and IPv6 networks. This course plus 4CIN will help students prepare for the CCENT certification. This course describes the architecture, components, and operations of routers and switches in larger and more complex networks. Students learn how to configure routers and switches for advanced functionality. By the end of this course, students will be able to configure and troubleshoot routers and switches and resolve common issues with OSPF, EIGRP, and STP in both IPv4 and IPv6 networks. Students will also develop the knowledge and skills needed to implement a WLAN in a small-to-medium network. This subject will introduce students to the skills and knowledge required to install and manage enterprisewide information and communications technology networks, including Voice over IP (VoIP). Students use their skills and knowledge gained in Microsoft technologies, Cisco and Linux to implement a project that includes advanced server security using secure authentication and network services on a network server. This subject will introduce students to the skills and knowledge required to mitigate security threats to a wireless local area network (WLAN) by implementing security standards and policies Manage ICT project systems implementation. The subject is completed in groups and focuses on complex aspects of ICT Software Project Management from initiation, implementation and completion of a project, software metrics including error categorisation and analysis and defect removal efficiency; business continuity including determining and protecting critical systems and identifying recovery methodology processes. 5
