ACS Digital Pulse: Australia needs 200,000 more tech workers in five years
The technology skills gap in Australia is deepening, with an extra 200,000 technology workers needed in the next five years if the country is going to be a world leader in the digital economy, according to a new report from the Australian Computer Society (ACS) and Deloitte.
The 200,000 workers equates to a jump of 30 per cent and would bring the ICT workforce up to almost 871,000 people, but currently there are still less than 5000 local graduates from ICT degrees each year.
