While the Global Knowledge 2019 IT Skills and Salary Report has a strong focus on money, the findings of this year’s report reveal so much more than an IT professional’s desire for cash.
IT pros are going hard after certifications for a few reasons:
They want more experience.
Holding multiple certifications makes them more well-rounded pros and gives them more opportunities.
The skills gap is real – there are plenty of IT jobs out there for those who are qualified.
They’re more effective in their current positions.
At the panel, we discussed how over the years, we’ve seen attacks on key pillars of society.
Identity: U.S. Office of Personnel Management

Healthcare The US healthcare.gov site, as well as statewide issues, such as the State of Oregon’s health exchange
Electoral Process: 2015 U.S. elections database, 2016 elections, Iowa
Retail: Tesco, Target
We discussed how so much is at stake, kind of on a sliding scale, from better to worse, if things go wrong during specific points of the election cycle. They include, from better to worse:
Loss of service: Critical, embarrassing delays that effectively deny a service.
Loss of confidence in an event: Where we can’t tell what really has happened, or where a pillar (e.g., an election) is somehow compromised.
Loss of confidence in the entire process: Where people don’t just question a specific event, but the very democratic process itself.
We discussed that while it may seem dramatic at this point, if too many issues occur, then we could see an erosion in confidence in the entire system. I find this interesting, because word on the street in Washington, D.C., after Iowa, is that for the next election cycle (four years from now), the Iowa caucuses won’t even be on the political radar.
