The correspondent of Ukrinform expressed this view in the telethon #UArazom.

“Since the beginning of the war, the IT industry has grown by 20-30% every year. If you look at last year, there were not 30-40 thousand experts to meet all the needs of the market. This year we planned to launch the program for 15,000 experts. However, in connection with the war, the structure of the market is changing. A few months “You have to look at the trend throughout. But my guess is that 10,000-15,000 professionals will be needed over the next six months to a year to meet the needs of the IT market.”

He noted that today representatives of the IT world continue to work actively and create new jobs. And already this year there is a possibility of reaching last year’s working rates.

As reported, the Ministry of Statistics is launching the IT Generation project together with partners, the Binance blockchain ecosystem and the Lviv IT cluster. In this way, Ukrainians will be able to get a free profession in the field of informatics. Applications will be received from schools in July and from students in August.

Training under the program will last between 2 and 6 months. Citizens of Ukraine between the ages of 21 and 60 who have not received formal education and do not have qualifications and experience in the field of informatics will be able to participate in the project.
