Program overview

A two year college diploma in systems support, covering networks and servers, operating systems, cloud infrastructure, technical troubleshooting and an optional co-op work term.

At CAD 17,869 this sits above the usual diploma rate, and Conestoga records it under a computer systems networking code that is aligned.

College Diploma in Computer Systems Technician, IT Infrastructure and Services is taught at Conestoga College Doon campus, a public Ontario college. The computer systems technician diploma sits below degree level, so a work permit depends on its field of study. Conestoga records the computer systems technician diploma under CIP 15.1202 and lists it among its PGWP-aligned programmes, which supports a permit of up to three years. IRCC alone decides, so verify 15.1202 against the current eligible list before paying for the computer systems technician diploma. Ontario also requires a provincial attestation letter before the computer systems technician diploma can support a study permit.

Entry to College Diploma in Computer Systems Technician, IT Infrastructure and Services is Grade 12 or equivalent at 50 percent or above. The English requirement is IELTS 6.0 with no band below 5.5, and tuition for the computer systems technician diploma is recorded at CAD 17,869. Conestoga charges a CAD 100 application fee, and no scholarship is recorded against the computer systems technician diploma. The computer systems technician diploma lists three entry windows across the annual intake cycle. Apply Study Visa manages your the computer systems technician diploma application, the deposit, the offer, the attestation letter and the Canadian study permit as one process.

  • English (meet any one): IELTS Academic 6.0 overall with no band below 5.5; TOEFL iBT 80 with 20 in every section; PTE Academic 53 with no component below 10; or the Duolingo English Test at 110.
  • Application and deposit: Conestoga charges a CAD 100 application fee. Confirm the tuition deposit and its refundability in writing before any money is transferred.
  • Scholarship: No scholarship is recorded against this programme. Budget the full tuition.
  • Work rights: Conestoga lists the computer systems technician diploma as PGWP-aligned under CIP 15.1202, supporting a work permit of up to three years.

  • Network Technician: managed service providers
