You will build practical skills in computer systems and networking — hardware, operating systems, enterprise networking, servers, virtualisation, security fundamentals and technical support — through extensive hands-on labs. Networking and systems roles are in steady, strong demand. Graduates work as IT support specialists, network technicians and administrators, systems analysts and infrastructure technicians across many industries.

Delivered at Centennial College's Progress Campus in Scarborough, Toronto — the flagship campus of Ontario's first public college. This field aligns with the priority categories in Canada's post-2024 PGWP rules, so graduates may qualify for a Post-Graduation Work Permit; confirm the program's CIP code on Centennial's official PGWP-Aligned list, as the final decision rests with IRCC.

Graduates are well placed for roles such as IT Support Specialist, Network Technician/Administrator and Systems Support Analyst, gaining hands-on skills and real Canadian experience in Toronto's large job market.

Beyond technical learning, you will build the communication, teamwork and problem-solving skills that transfer across careers and support long-term success in Canada and beyond.

Studying at Ontario's first public college — one of Canada's most multicultural campuses, with automatic entrance scholarships of up to $5,000 for eligible new international students — you get supportive services and a welcoming community.
