A 16-week comprehensive short course designed to prepare learners for the in-demand role of Datacentre Technician. Gain an understanding of the datacentre environment, standard procedures for security and data management. Learn fundamental IT skills, including hardware operations, from installation to diagnostics and decommissioning of equipment.
In November 2024 I was invited to be a part of the pilot program starting in Feburary the following year. The course was delivered over 13 weeks. From the current TAFE description, changes appear to have been made for the next student intake with the course now 16 weeks duration. Hopefully some of the other feeback given has also been taken into account.
Herein lies my notes that others may find useful. I'll endevaour to add things as I decifer my chicken scratchings.
