ITWeb, in partnership with Mecer Inter-Ed, is running a survey on the value of IT training and certification amongst businesses and individuals in South Africa.

The survey aims to explore whether businesses think that there´s value in paying a training services provider, and if so, what is that value, and does the market understand that value?

In this survey, we examine, among other things:

Do you have a dedicated IT staff training budget?
What vendor certifications do you currently hold?
Which training formats do you find most effective?

By completing the questionnaire, you stand a chance to win a Takealot gift voucher to the value of R3000.

The detailed results of the survey and the winner of the lucky prize draw will be published on ITWeb.
