IT Academy STEP Cambodia

18.02.2026

809 views

The demand for professional IT education in Cambodia continues to grow rapidly. More students are looking for practical, career-focused programs that prepare them for real jobs in the digital economy. Due to strong enrollment interest, IT Academy STEP Cambodia is officially opening two additional professional groups starting in March 2026.

These new groups are designed to provide more flexibility while maintaining the same international-standard curriculum and hands-on learning experience that STEP is known for. Seats are limited, and early registration is strongly recommended.

 

New March 2026 Intake: Program & Schedule

To accommodate increasing demand, STEP is opening:

- Computer Graphics & Design – Afternoon Group

📅 Starting March 16, 2026

- Software Development – Morning Group

📅 Starting March 18, 2026

These new schedules allow students to choose a study time that fits their university, work, or personal commitments.

 

Computer Graphics & Design – Afternoon Group
Build a Career in Creative Design

The Computer Graphics & Design Professional Program is designed for students who want to build strong skills in visual communication and digital creativity. This program combines design fundamentals with real project experience, helping students develop both technical and creative confidence.

Throughout the course, students will learn:

- Graphic design principles and visual composition
- Branding and identity design
- Digital illustration and creative software tools
- UI/UX fundamentals
- Portfolio development with real-world projects

Graduates can pursue careers as graphic designers, branding specialists, digital content creators, social media designers, or freelance creatives. The new afternoon group is especially suitable for students who study in the morning or manage part-time work.

 

Software Development – Morning Group
Develop In-Demand Programming Skills

The Software Development Professional Program prepares students to become skilled programmers ready for today’s tech-driven market. The curriculum focuses on building strong foundations in coding while guiding students through practical software projects.

Students will gain experience in:

- Programming fundamentals
- Web development (front-end and back-end)
- Application development
- Database systems
- Software project building

With Cambodia’s digital economy expanding quickly, skilled developers are in high demand across startups, corporations, banks, and international companies. The new morning group offers flexibility for students who prefer to complete classes earlier in the day.

Practical Learning with Real Career Focus

At IT Academy STEP Cambodia, learning goes beyond theory. Students work on structured projects, real case scenarios, and hands-on assignments that simulate real industry environments. This approach helps students graduate with practical skills, a professional portfolio, and the confidence to enter competitive job markets.

STEP’s mission is clear: prepare students not just to study IT, but to build sustainable careers in technology and digital industries.

 

Limited Seats – Secure Your Spot Early

These additional professional groups were opened because previous intakes filled quickly. As a result, seats are expected to be limited once again.

If you are planning to study Computer Graphics & Design or Software Development in Cambodia, March 2026 is your opportunity to start. Early registration is highly recommended to secure your place before enrollment closes.

Your future in tech won’t wait. Neither should you.

Inside STEP Cambodia's 2026 Associate Degree Exit Exam

IT Academy STEP Cambodia held its Associate Degree Exit Exam with MoEYS officials on site to check quality. See what it means for your future studies.

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 Graduate Employment in Cambodia: STEP Results 2025–2026

97% of STEP Cambodia graduates with confirmed status are working. See employers, salaries and real career stories from the 2025–2026 cohorts.

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

Digital Business and AI: Inside STEP's Newest Professional Diploma Program

Inside the STEP Digital Business and AI course Cambodia has been waiting for: what you study each term, the careers it leads to, and who the program is built for.

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 The program runs 2.5 years acr
