[LINK] Developing Australia’s the Digital Workforce

[Tom Worthington]

Greetings from the Press Club in Canberra, where the Australian Computer 
Society (ACS) has just launched the report "Australia’s Digital Pulse: 
Developing the digital workforce to drive growth in the future", 
commissioned by Deloitte Access Economics (DAE): 
http://www.acs.org.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0011/96698/PJ52569-Australias-Digital-Pulse-2016_LAYOUT_Final_Web.pdf

The report speculates about technologies which may effect manufacturing, 
construction and mining, but fails to address the effect ICT is already 
having on education.One interesting innovation in how the report as 
prepared is the use of LinkedIn to gauge demand for ICT personnel.
