Abstract

This report presents the results of a survey carried out by the AERU research unit to map skills demand in the Canterbury ICT sector. This completes the first stream of the Electrotechnology Industry Training Organisation (ETITO) Growth Pilot funded by the Tertiary Education Commission to develop a model and mechanisms to ensure the timely delivery of an appropriate number of suitably qualified individuals across the range of competence required by enterprises in the Canterbury ICT sector.
