Rhode Island Tech Council Assessing IT Industry Needs

July 27, 2001

The Rhode Island Technology Council (RITEC) is launching a benchmarking survey this week of the state’s information technology (IT) industry to determine how the council and state economic development organizations can be most effective at addressing the sector’s needs in light of the continued restructuring of the national IT industry. The survey includes two components: a company survey to collect demographic and compositional information on the industry; and an IT professional survey for skill and training assessment.

Conducted in partnership with the Rhode Island Economic Development Corporation and the Economic Policy Council, the survey results will be compiled and released in September. For more information, visit http://www.ritec.org
