e-skills Bulletin
The latest offering from e-skills.com dropped into my inbox the other day. As I browsed through it, I realised that much of the data presented in it will be of interest to IAP members, especially if they are currently planning their next career moves and/or training schedules. For example, did you know that, although the techMark index looked pretty flat at the end of 2003, some sub-categories were up very significantly in the last quarter? The Internet and computer services were both up over 30% and software was up 24%. However the wireless telecommunication service sector was down 5%. Not what I’d have expected intuitively! There are also some very detailed data on employment trends. You can sign up for the e-skills quarterly bulletin at www.e-skills.com/bulletin and it’s free!
