IT professionals in a team meeting

The National Skills Academy for IT is being set up by employers to ensure that we have the right IT skills in the UK to drive our economy forward.

By bringing business, IT professionals and providers together the Skills Academy will redefine our understanding of IT skills and transform the way IT professionals learn.

Fifteen major UK businesses have already put their weight behind the Skills Academy. Whether you are an employer, IT professional or training provider, the Skills Academy is being set-up for you.

We are piloting The National Skills Academy for IT in Spring 2010 and will be open for business Autumn 2010.  If you want to be involved right from the start, contact us now.
