A university degree can serve as an indicator that a person has certain key skills when it comes to technical IT roles, but those skills can also be acquired through hands-on experience outside the formal education system.
So when hiring for technical positions, that piece of paper will be advantageous, it is not a prerequisite. Again, it all depends on the nature of the role.
Many employers still prefer to hire people with university degrees only.
Earning your bachelor’s degree is important because it will help you to earn more money. When it comes to one’s quality of life, those who have a bachelor’s degree tend to fare better than those without one.
The ATMC (ATMC CRICOS CODE: 03013D) in association with FedUni, CDU and USC offer an exciting collection of University master’s degrees in information technology and Information Systems and bachelor and master’s degrees in business and Accounting.
