Information technology (IT) is the use of computers to store and transmit data. Mostly, IT is referred to in business or enterprise contexts. IT is one part of information and communications technology (ICT). An IT system is a group of users operating an information system that includes data, computers, software, hardware and all other peripherals. IT systems, and hence IT companies, are at the heart of the tech revolution our world has witnessed in the past few decades.

Each of the online IT courses on Alison are free, as are all of Alison's online courses. Alison's learners do not have to pay anything to take these courses unless they want a digital or physical copy of the course certificate.
