Companies also need web and mobile developers to design and implement user-friendly web and mobile applications to ensure that their clients and customers can access their online services.”</span></p></blockquote><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: transparent;">VIU worked with local IT businesses and Vancouver Island technology councils to determine what skills graduating students require to support this rapidly advancing field.</span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: transparent;">“We have worked extensively with them to understand their needs and partner with them in facilitating work experiences for our students,” adds White. “Over 80% of ITAS graduates move right away into their first IT career opportunity and we see that trend continuing with the two new programs.”</span></p><drupal-media data-entity-type="media" data-entity-uuid="215d511e-501d-4256-b5b2-fd2b2cf9c339" data-view-mode="large" alt="VIU Launches Two New Information Technology Diploma Programs" data-align="right"></drupal-media><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: transparent;"> </span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: transparent;">The ITAS Systems Administration and Networking program prepares students for careers in the design, installation, operation and administration of network and Internet-based information systems such as enterprise level operating systems, web servers, virtualization and cloud computing, email systems and cybersecurity practices.
