Corporate Demand for Information Technology Courses from Colleges and Technical Institutes
Primary Research Group, Jan 2000
The information technology economy is booming and available IT jobs greatly exceed the supply of qualified applicants. Colleges across the country are trying to meet national needs by developing specific training programs for private industry and government agencies, and also gearing their existing academic programs toward the needs of the new economy without sacrificing academic integrity. This special report is based on interviews with more than 125 major and medium-sized companies and government agencies across the country (mean number of employees: 3,335) about their policies and plans regarding IT courses from colleges. The data in the report is broken out by size and type of company so that college marketers can focus their efforts on the most worthwhile prospects. The report also profiles the cutting-edge efforts of community and four-year colleges, as well as of universities, to develop programs and courses in information technology for American business.
