Business is constantly changing. Technology is always advancing.  The CIO Leaders Certificate Program will prepare you for next generation technology leadership in less than a year.

This certification is for Chief Information Officers or the senior leader of technology who expect to be an integral part of the most senior management team of their organisation. Deep technical knowledge is not assumed or required at this level but a strategic sense and involvement in business decisions is a prerequisite of a successful CIO.

This is an engaged and collaborative course. There will be work in between the modules and that work will be shared with the rest of the cohort in a collaborative style in video conferences with all in the cohort. An important requirement for each leading CIO is to be able coach their teams and collaborate with their peers across the organisation, across time zones and cultures. This will provide the practical experience of that.

This course is about the management of the technology landscape. It is practical, delivered by practitioners. Technology advances and opportunities are recognised and discussed, within their appropriate context.

Through impactful coursework the program provides you with the skills, behaviours and insights you need to be an effective CIO in an increasingly digitised world which demands more from you as the CIO.

This nine-month program is delivered in a synchronous distance learning format to form deeper connections with your cohort while staying at your own location. It takes an interdisciplinary approach to people, processes, information and technology management. It is designed for CIOs, CTOs, CDOs, other executives with IT oversight responsibilities, and their direct reports who are preparing for promotion.

All participants admitted to the CIO Certificate Program will have at least five years of relevant managerial experience, giving you the chance to collaborate with similarly experienced peers and build exciting new relationships and networks with your cohorts and module leaders who are subject matter experts.
