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.

Thank you for participating!
