(8) The model for estimating education needs analyses the labour market and in the
medium-term future estimates the possibility of finding suitable employment for graduates
that are entering the labour market. The model estimates the demand for work in previously
defined professional and educational groups in the next five years and the size of the demand
for work in educational groups confronted with the influx of graduates in the same period.
The model anticipates the further development of the employment categories made up of
IT/ICT specialists with the codes KZAM 213 and 312.
The estimated total number of IT/ICT specialists between 2005 and 2010 will increase with
an average growth rate of 4.6% annually. The model predicts approx. 22,000 new jobs for
IT professionals in this period.
Employees from the Institute for Further Education provided an estimate of the number of
university graduates in the branches of Informatics and Computer Technology. It amounted to
about 18,000 new university-educated graduates in the years 2006 to 2010.
From this it can be concluded that university-educated specialists will have a good chance to
obtain employment in the sector, it can be expected that they will often replace the highschool
graduates that are currently working in the branch. The chances of high schooleducated
IT/ICT technicians to obtain employment in the branch will be apparently lower in
the future.
