Skills 99 details a survey review of the IT/IS skills market in the UK, concentrating on IT Practitioners who work for IT Supplier and IT User companies. The report aims to strengthen our understanding of the current position of the labour market in IT skills in the UK, of the economic context, demand and supply, and of the influences and implications of the forces for change in the coming years. The data is drawn from the Labour Force Survey and a review of other sources published before May 1999.
