IT Cambridge Technical Level 3

In today’s society, information and information technology (IT) are ubiquitous and influence all forms of human activity. IT professionals support the goals and cultures of the people and organisations they serve and more than ever decision-makers rely on IT to help them be more productive.
The number of IT jobs continues to grow and pay is generally high. IT jobs provide leadership challenges and opportunities, contributing to a satisfying career that lets you combine IT with your other interests.

About the subject
The most basic information technology definition emphasises the application of technology to solve business or organisational problems on a broad scale: it is synonymous with scenarios where you might call for help with a computer issue. However, while that view of information technology isn’t totally wrong, it drastically understates the scope of this critical career field. If you’re looking to get a better handle on what information technology is – now and in the future, then you’ve come to the right place.
