We believe anyone can become an IT specialist. To achieve this goal, you need only desire, diligence and discipline. We will take care of the rest.
We have developed a comprehensive training curriculum to master professional IT skills through practice.
IT Nova has been working in the field of IT education since 1999. We cooperate with major software development companies and know what kind of education is necessary for a successful start in IT. Thanks to our unique curriculum and project-based approach, our students learn to solve real problems and are able to join the IT industry even during the training stage.
The value of the professional program “Network Technologies and Cyber Security” is confirmed by thousands of Nova graduates who now work as qualified engineers in the largest IT companies in 36 countries around the world.
Relevance, Expertise, Support
The IT Nova training process is based on three essential components of effective education.
Current curriculum
The knowledge and skills that our students gain must meet the requirements of employers today and in the future. Therefore, we review and update our curriculum every 6 months.
Trainers with practical skills
IT Nova trainers are IT professionals with at least 5 years of experience. Our students receive only relevant knowledge and skills, applied in practice.
Friendly environment
We have created a special learning environment where trainers and students can communicate as partners, following one goal. Our classrooms and laboratories are equipped as comfortable workplaces, with computers and necessary software.
This program is developed to
High school students and graduates
(15-18 years old)
who dream of a career in IT or of becoming a network technology engineer.
University students
(18-23 years old)
who desire a second specialty in parallel with their university education.
Representatives of other professions (23-55 years old)
who are not satisfied with their current careers and financial potential, and wish to train as a network administrator or build a career in the IT-industry.
Everyone who wants to improve their IT skills
who would like to systematize their knowledge and gain high in demand professional skills in modern IT.
After 2.5 years students of IT Nova will receive
Maximal practical training
Nova educational process is practice based. We do not have boring lectures; our students are not required to write lecture summaries and memmorize materials. Diverse study content is available on a modern and convenient online platform. Student can study at any place and at any time.
Ready
portfolio
IT Nova students work on interesting projects, following IT industry demands and employers' needs . The final step of the educational program is a graduation project. Students' projects are included into a professional portfolio which gives them an important benefit in successfully finding employment.
Employment assistance
Representatives of leading IT companies attend students' project presentations, and participate as jury members and speakers at hackathons and IT competitions organized by Nova. Hardworking and talented students are recruited even before graduation.
Why does the program last for 2.5 years, not just 3 months?
Often short courses promise to train a beginner into a qualified professional in just 3-4 months. This is either a lie or an incompetent statement. In such a short period of time, one can learn just basics, but not serious practical skills. After such courses, engineers will only be able to perform simple and low-paid tasks and need to learn more on their own in order to advance, constantly filling gaps in this basic education. Many self-taught IT managers regret that they did not receive fundamental education at the very beginning of their careers. Our professional "Network Technologies and Cyber Security" program covers all the necessary subjects for a professional specialist. The program is designed for 2.5 years, or 5 terms. We are confident that this is the right duration to gain the skills and necessary experience to become a high in-demand professional.
