ARKET EEDS According to Tamkeen-Allen Group’s Gap Analysis report that showed increasing gap between Bahraini and non-Bahraini ICT professionals. As a result, projected demand for ICT jobs is increasing. The study concludes that “personnel with strong fundamental IT skills and knowledge will be able to adapt to new IT technologies more rapidly than personnel only possessing application-specific skills and knowledge. Indeed, new IT hardware and software applications are increasingly technical and complex, requiring highly skilled personnel for both operation and maintenance”. According to a US study (http://www.itcareerfinder.com/brainfood/blog/entry/best-computer-jobs-for-the-future.html), employment opportunities for computer scientists and IT professional are expected to increase by 19% between 2010 and 2020. As a result, the need for the Computer Science graduates has increased significantly, leading to a skills shortage across the IT sectors locally, regionally and internationally.
