We achieve this in an manner that produces the highest quality IT professionals while remaining affordable to the masses. Better IT careers means helping candidates to better market their skills as well as helping candidates to develop better skills."
Why is that important?
- Without proper preparation, candidates find that they are not well suited to positions and they are not offered work.
- Some job candidates cannot afford expensive training and therefore incorrectly assume that this industry is not suitable for them.
- Businesses find that ill prepared candidates are less efficient, make more mistakes and take longer to train than quality candidates.
Why is that important?
The IT industry is becoming more and more complex. It is becoming increasingly important to society that systems are designed and supported by the best possible people.
Why is that important?
As our dependency on technology increases so the stakes.
What would the world lose if we ceased to exist?
A source of independent IT industry information that helps to produce better IT professionals and therefore a better world.

Our Journey
IT-Pathways.com was co-founded by Andres and Cassandra Villalva. In 2007 we started a home project in Brisbane, Australia to assist close friends and family to learn and ultimately enter the Information Technology industry.
After 12 months of research we realized that we had compiled sufficient information to write a book and a little market research revealed that there was a tremendous demand for the information that we had to offer. Instead of writing a book, we produced our first video series that was received with very encouraging praise and has been an outstanding success in terms of results for our customers.
The IT-pathways website itself was originally created to support the video series but we soon found that people wanted more out of the site. The site grew from several pages to hundreds of pages and we continue to expand exponentially to provide as much assistance as possible for current and future Information Technology professionals.
Today, IT-Pathways employs a dozen contractors specializing in HR, Research, Data Entry, Database development and Application development and the website is a rich knowledgebase of experiences from well respected industry experts.
We hope that we can help you with your IT career development, whether it be training, information, examples, commentary, tips or news we aim to become the largest specialist IT Career Development website in the world (if we are not already).
Thank you for the visit and enjoy!
