e-skills UK

Technology is at the heart of how we live, learn and work. It has a measurable impact on business productivity and competitive advantage – but only if people have the skills to successfully implement, manage and use it.

As the employer-led Sector Skills Council for IT and Telecoms, e-skills UK acts as the 'voice' of employers on technology-related skills issues. Our work unites employers with government and education to tackle the skills issues no one organisation can solve on its own.

e-skills UK provides advice, services and programmes that have a measurable impact on IT related skills development in the UK.

"The global landscape for IT professionals and the IT industry is undergoing constant evolution and this will only accelerate with time. It is vital that we continue to understand and address the skills and development implications of these changes so that the UK has the IT expertise it needs to succeed in every sector of the economy." Karen Price, OBE, CEO e-skills UK

e-skills UK is part of the Skills for Business network of 25 employer-led Sector Skills Councils.
