In IT and Security.
The OTHM Level 4 Diploma in Information Technology is where your pathway begins. This is a 120-credit qualification made up of six 20-credit modules. Each module is mapped to a recognised UK qualification level and assessed through assignments, projects, and practical lab work. You don’t just learn theory — you build real artefacts you can show an employer or a university admissions officer.
By the time you finish Level 4, you will be able to explain how cyber security works in modern organisations, build basic software, design simple systems, configure a small network, and manage digital information responsibly.
