The Information Technology
(IT) and the Communications age has brought with it new ways of
doing businesses - the Information Society - the Knowledge economy.
For effective and efficient
management of information, human and material resources,
organizations (big or small) have to invest in Information and
Communications Technologies.
Thus, the computer has become
a tool for the realization of corporate and strategic goals in areas
of manpower development, product/service delivery and after
sales support services. IT and Telecom are essential for enhancing
business value.
It has also become a tool for empowerment. It
today's world IT knowledge and skills make the difference. IT
literacy is a necessity and the demand for competent IT
professionals is high and growing everyday. In the ICT industry many
need to know what and how to acquire skills that will enhance their
value and give them competitive advantage. Learning is Lifelong.
To fully maximize the use of the computers, to
acquire expertise that makes the difference, individuals and
result-oriented organizations must work hand-in-hand with firms that
not only have the required expertise and experience, but also have a
client-oriented focus.
