About Course

Information Technology is a short paper — 50 marks in 60 minutes — covering four areas of equal weight: building information systems, managing information systems, information technologies themselves, and business continuity planning and disaster recovery. The bank covers all four evenly. Candidates often treat this as the module to leave until last, and then find it examined on specific terminology: the stages of a development lifecycle, the elements of a feasibility study, the difference between a warm and a cold site. There is enough practice here to make that terminology automatic.
