The IT industry is crying out for qualified people to fill their growing list of vaccancies.
Many companies within the IT industry are struggling to find people with the right qualifications and experience. There are already skill shortages in vital areas such as big data and mobile IT and new ones are opening up in areas such as networking and project management. A recent study by the InterQuest Group showed that the majority of UK organisations and companies are now experiencing difficulties when it comes to filling IT jobs.
The problem is that many of the IT professionals who have been working in the industry over the past two decades are retiring or are leaving to set up their own businesses. At the same time not enough young people are training to replace them. Add to this the fact that the IT industry is in a constant state of flux with protocols and programming languages changing at an amazing rate and you have a huge problem. IT professionals are left struggling to do their jobs and find the time to update their training to keep pace with all the changes.
However, it is not all bad news. Whilst the industry is struggling to keep pace with the rate of change and demand it is making headway. The emergence of good quality online IT courses is helping. It is now relatively easy for a person to find a properly accredited Microsoft training courses online. It is now viable for a complete beginner or an established IT professional to complete IT training in virtually any discipline without ever entering a classroom.
The benefits of online IT training
The availability of online training is allowing people who could not otherwise train in IT to do so. Companies like Online IT Courses allow their students to access course material at any time of the day or night. This makes it possible for existing IT professionals or those who want to enter the industry to train even when holding down another job. The availablilty of accredited online IT training courses has also brought the cost down to a point where it is affordable. Some people save 80% by taking online rather than classroom based courses.
Many in the IT industry believe that the availability of online IT training is helping to ensure that enough people enter the industry. It will take a few years, but gradually the IT skill gap will close.
