AI Career Starter Program

Blending Microsoft’s deep expertise and innovation in AI, the Institute of Applied Technology Digital’s educational expertise & Akkodis’ industry insights, we’re unlocking AI skills and opportunities for everyone.


Akkodis, together with Microsoft, joined forces with The Institute of Applied Technology Digital (IATD) to pilot a state-wide upskilling program, bringing new AI skills to NSW.​ The pilot program offered NSW residents the opportunity to future-proof their careers and develop skills they need to survive in our brave new AI fuelled world.​

The AI Career starter program gives participants the opportunity to secure their AI-900: Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals credential. Upon completion, this creates an opportunity to further advance their skills and provides pathways to secure employment, building the talent pool for future tech jobs in NSW.​

Recognizing the opportunity that reskilling offers to support career development by placing people more rapidly into technology roles, this program aims to support individuals from a diverse range of backgrounds to reskill and move into the IT industry. These skills also support NSW to develop the valuable high-tech sector, positioning the state as a hub for digital business.
