UK IT Training Market Report 2014
M2 - Wed Apr 09, 8:18AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7csjwr/it_training) has announced the addition of the "IT Training Market Report 2014" report to their offering. This Market Report covers the UK's IT training industry. The sector is subdivided into instructor-led training (ILT) and the smaller but growing sector of e-learning. Although many remain sceptical about adopting e-learning services widely, the category is edging market share away from the ILT sector. The report provides market figures and forecasts, while looking at industry features, trends and current issues. It also profiles a section of the industry's biggest players, listing their recent developments, corporate activity and financial results. Trends and issues currently impacting upon market performance include the growing demand for training and expertise in cyber security; the rise of cloud computing; the drive by the UK Government to improve people's knowledge of coding; and to encourage more girls into IT careers. Analysis of job vacancies in the IT sector between Q2 2012 and Q2 2013 has shown that, in general, both permanent and contract opportunities have increased. A healthy IT sector overall should bode well for the IT training industry. The market is vulnerable to its economic context, however, and has been affected by the money-saving training smarter' trend. This has seen organisations seek to streamline their expenditure on training and get more for less'. Changes in demand have included a rise in training employees to be trainers (rather than regularly bringing in external providers) and an increase in money-saving options such as group training or e-learning. Providers of IT training will need to be watchful and adaptable in order to perform at their best. With this in mind, the authors have estimated modest but steady growth for the industry between 2009 and 2018. Key Topics Covered: 1 Market Definition 2 Market Size 3 Industry Background 4 Competitor Analysis 5 Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats 6 Buying Behaviour 7 Current Issues 8 The Global Market 9 Forecasts 10 Company Profiles - Assima Plc - CGI It UK Ltd - Global Knowledge Network Training Ltd - IBM United Kingdom Ltd - Learning Tree International Ltd - Oracle Corporation UK Ltd - Progility Plc - QA Ltd - Sap (UK) Ltd - Skillsoft UK Ltd For more information visit http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7c...t_training
