Two ICT students at Victoria University will benefit from a state government program to promote skills development. Netsolutions is providing the opportunities for industry experience. The program provides ICT students with industry based learning opportunities intended to improve professional and personal skills. Two final-year students at Victoria University have been selected for the scholarships, which are funded for 2010. They will spend two 12-week placements with Netsolutions, working on a new integrated security management platform at the company's Port Melbourne R&D centre. The program is part of the state government's $1.84 million ICT skills package within the Building Our Industries for the Future strategy.
