Transcript of BIT Brochure
“The programme
offered me a great opportunity to gain in-depth knowledge and understanding
of how the IT industry affects society, and gain practical skills
in the IT field. The knowledge and skills I acquired at AIS helped
me develop confidence, which in turn enabled me to secure a good position with one of the most promising IT
companies in Auckland.”- Hao Sun
