IT faces ‘dire shortage’ of core skills, study

The lack of core IT skills is a major impediment to modernizing key IT assets, according to a survey by application-management company Micro Focus.

According to the study, published on Monday, there is a shortage of IT skills across Europe and the US, even though such skills are core assets needed during a recession.

Part of the problem is that businesses are now focusing on newer areas such as Web 2.0, without realizing that the skills to support core infrastructure are lacking, Micro Focus chief executive Stephen Kelly told ZDNet UK. “In this survey, we are not devaluing Web 2.0,” he said. “The problem is that newer technologies cannot succeed unless they are supported by the core infrastructure.”
