critical

Importance of Digital Literacies for Employability
• e-Skills UK research reported in their ‘Technology Insights 2011’ demonstrates the demand for digital literacies for employability:
• Across the UK economy, 22 million people, 77% of the workforce, use IT in their jobs, and this will continue to rise. 92% of job advertisements require applicants to have basic IT skills and 1 in 10 UK businesses report gaps in IT user skills.
• 1.5 million people in the UK are currently employed in the IT sector and 500,000 new staff will be required in this sector over the next 5 years.
