On Wednesday, 30 September 2026, our Associate Degree students at IT Academy STEP Cambodia sat their Exit Exam, the final assessment before they graduate. It was a big day for them, and it came with an important guest. Officials from the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport (MoEYS) visited our campus to monitor the exam and check its quality in person.
For students, this was the moment all those late nights of coding, designing and fixing projects were building toward. For us, it was a chance to show that the Associate Degree Exit Exam at STEP Cambodia is run to the same standard the Ministry expects from every accredited institution in the country.
What Is the Associate Degree Exit Exam?
The Exit Exam is the last big test of the Associate Degree program. It checks whether students have truly mastered what they learned across their studies, not just memorized it for one class.
At STEP Cambodia, students can choose to earn a MoEYS-recognized Associate Degree alongsid
IT Academy STEP Institute delegation held a successful meeting with H.E. Dr. Hang Chuon Naron, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Education, Youth and Sport, on 14 September 2026 in Phnom Penh. The discussion focused on STEP's contribution to IT higher education, the development of job-ready digital talent and opportunities to expand cooperation with the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport.
The STEP delegation was led by Mrs. Rodionova Natalja, Managing Partner of IT Academy STEP Institute and director of Sisters of Code, STEP's non-profit initiative for girls and young women.
H.E. the Deputy Prime Minister recognised IT Academy STEP's and Sisters of Code active contribution to digital education in Cambodia and expressed interest in strengthening and expanding cooperation. The discussion connected STEP's work with the Ministry's priorities for STEM education, digital transformation, teacher development, critical thinking, innovation and stronger cooperat
Choosing where to study is a major decision. Most schools explain what students will learn. Far fewer publish what happens after graduation: whether graduates find work, where they are employed, and how their careers develop.
At IT Academy STEP Cambodia, we follow up with graduates after they complete their programs. Our 2025–2026 graduate employment data covers students from the 2.5-year Software Development and Computer Graphics & Design Professional Programs. The results show strong employment across both fields, and real career progression from junior roles and freelance projects to specialist and management positions.
97% of graduates are working, and many are employed even before graduation
We asked our graduates in 2025 and 2026 if they are employed, and 97% confirmed that they are working in companies, government institutions or as independent professionals. Some others continue their studies in other educational institutions and cannot yet start working full
Every company in Phnom Penh is being told to "use AI." Very few have people who actually know how. That gap is exactly what the Digital Business and Artificial Intelligence diploma at IT Academy STEP Institute was built to close.
It is the newest of our four professional diploma programs, and the only digital business and AI course Cambodia offers where artificial intelligence is not one module at the end. It runs through all five terms, applied to real business work.
Who This Program Is Actually For
This is not a programming degree. If you want to build software, the Software Development diploma is your path.
DBAI is for the person who wants to sit between business and technology. You enjoy solving problems, working with people, and making decisions with evidence rather than guesses. You want to understand data, marketing, operations and AI well enough to lead a project, not just complete a task.
What You Study, Term by Term
