Qualifications offered by CIT range from certificate to degree level. CIT has four campuses across Canberra, located in Bruce, Reid, Woden and Fyshwick. CIT also has two learning centres in Tuggeranong Town Centre and Gungahlin which are primarily for students studying via flexible or distance learning.[1] HistoryCIT was founded in 1928 and since that time it has been known under a number of different names.{{clarify|date=March 2012}} It has been a statutory authority since 4 January 1988[2] under Canberra Institute of Technology Act 1987. Courses offeredCourses are offered in these fields:
Qualifications include certificates I to IV, diploma and advanced diploma. Qualifications in these categories are managed by the Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF) which is the national set of standards. CIT is also accredited to deliver graduate certificates, graduate diplomas and bachelor's degrees. Students in these courses may be eligible to receive FEE HELP[3] (formerly HECS) in the same way university students can. Some courses at CIT can be undertaken via Flexible Learning where students do not have to study according to a semester-based timetable.[4] Student numbersIn 2009 CIT had 26,941[5] student enrolments. Compared with the other education institutions in the ACT (University of Canberra, Australian National University, Australian Catholic University and the University of NSW at the Australian Defence Force Academy) CIT is the largest by student numbers.

CIT and other universitiesCIT and the University of Canberra (UC): CIT and UC collaborate on a number of initiatives, most prominently of pathways and transfers between the two institutions. CIT students who complete a diploma or advanced diploma are guaranteed an offer of a place in an undergraduate degree at the University of Canberra.[7] In addition, over 150 formal credit transfer arrangements[8] are in place where students can receive credit for CIT studies and reduce the number of units they need to study at UC. CIT and the University of Canberra also form two thirds of the collaborative organisation, the National Centre for Forensic Studies,[9] in conjunction with the Australian Federal Police. According to the National Centre for Forensic Studies’ website, this partnership exists to collaborate in the design, development and delivery of undergraduate and postgraduate courses leading to academic qualifications in forensic studies. CIT and the Australian National University (ANU): collaborate on the delivery of two associate degree programs – the Bachelor of Science and the Bachelor of Engineering, whereby students complete the first year of the degree at CIT and the second at ANU. Further, graduates automatically gain entry into a ‘linked’ ANU Bachelor's degree with 18 months credit.[10] CIT and Charles Sturt University (CSU): CIT and CSU collaboratively deliver the Bachelor of Business Studies.[11] Program is delivered wholly at CIT in Canberra. CIT and CSU also have a number of formalised credit transfer agreements whereby graduates of CIT’s Diploma / Advanced Diploma programs receive credit when they commence a linked CSU degree.[12] CIT and the Academy of Interactive Entertainment (AIE): CIT and AIE jointly deliver a number of programs including the Bachelor of Games and Virtual Worlds (Programming).[13] Awards
