Why the Smart Future?
So why is ICT the smart future? Well for starters, roles in this industry pay well – very well! And guess what, it’s also an industry facing a serious skill shortage. That means ICT companies in the Canterbury region can’t find enough suitably skilled and qualified people to fill the incredible range of jobs available now. And they’re going to need even more of these people in the future!
Opportunities for career progression in the ICT industry are excellent (not surprising when there’s a skill shortage!), working hours and conditions are often superior to those in other industries, and many jobs involve international travel.
So if you want a career in an industry where your skills are going to be in hot demand (and you’ll be paid very well for them), ICT is definitely the smart future!
