About Networking

What is networking?

Networking is a term that refers to all of the information technology infrastructure and services put in place to connect devices to, and run with, the internet.

A new business may need everything from advice on service providers to operating systems and how they’ll integrate with their wireless routers. 

Meanwhile, established business owners may know exactly what kind of high-speed wireless access they need to keep up with network traffic but need the infrastructure. Business networking, meanwhile, is also different from the kind of computer networking needed at a large organisation like a hospital or gallery, may require more than one access point to central systems.

Why study networking?

Technology is rapidly changing in Australia and New Zealand, so understanding all of the basics before you start working is crucial, or you won’t be able to keep up with changes as they occur. There are many success stories from all over the world, including the United States and the UK, where computer networking has become a crucial part of their success as a business, and most companies can no longer function without networking services making valuable points in regards to updating or changing services.

A networking course can also teach you:

• How to get an ABN and why you might need on
• How to build business relationships
• What network security issues might affect a company
• How to use Linkedin and other social media to create your own networking opportunities for multiple companies
• How to set up wireless access points
• Other networking tips that will help you in your career as a networker

Studying networking gives you an invaluable basis for a future career in an industry that is only expected to grow.

Where can I study networking?

There are a variety of courses that can get you started. Each course may teach something different, so make sure that you read course guides carefully, and if you’re an international student check with CRICOS.
