Join us for a panel discussion with IT hiring managers from the San Francisco Bay Area as they share with you the job skill they are seeking in today's IT employees. Hear what skills they will be looking for in IT employees over the next 2-5 years. Discuss with them your college's IT to see if it is meeting their requirements to get students employed. We are hearing from hiring managers they are having a difficult time finding qualified candidates that have the skills they need. Instructors are encouraged to share with the panel concerns students have about careers in IT. Bay Area companies are looking for interns and have had little success, hear why.

We encourage college instructors to use this opportunity to compare skills being taught in your colleges IT against the skills today's employers are seeking in potential employees.
