摘要
Information Communication Technology (ICT) is part of everyday life and the skills needed are quickly becoming a prerequisite for daily life. There is a dire shortage of ICT skills in South Africa and any attempt to circumvent this problem creates an even greater urgency. Several reports and much research have been conducted to establish the extent of the problem and many proposals and initiatives have been established to address it, but the problem seems to prevail. The aim of this study is to investigate the problems contributing to ICT skills shortages in South Africa, the initiatives in place to address it and to determine a possible need for skills by looking at other research and reports.
