IT Profesional

The ACCC has adopted the definition proposed by the Australian Council of Professions which defines a profession as:

"A disciplined group of individuals who adhere to high ethical standards and uphold themselves to, and are accepted by, the public as possessing special knowledge and skills in a widely recognised, organised body of learning derived from education and training at a high level, and who are prepared to exercise this knowledge and these skills in the interest of others. "

IT professionals perform a variety of duties that range from installing applications to designing complex computer networks and information databases. A few of the duties that IT professionals perform may include data management, networking, engineering computer hardware, database and software design, as well as the management and administration of entire systems.

You can also say that you are an IT Professional if you do have a wide set of background, education and personal experience in any of the IT fields which can make you handle and make a solutions to different problems through IT.

After graduating my course BSIT, I can consider myself as an IT professional. I'm saying it so because as what the definition says 'performing variety of duties related to IT', well, I believe that I can handle that one even though not all of the said fields of technologies I have really known deeply but I also believe that it can be learn as long as you have the basic knowledge about that. But of course, to go deeper in the fields of IT, i want to learn more or going to study again or to pursue and attain master degree.
