Two Options

Hire new high skilled engineers

• Expensive & time consuming

• Skilled labour shortage

Send existing engineers on I.T. bootcamps

• Expensive: $1000 - $5000 per engineer

• Low information retention (<10%)

• Takes engineers out of the workflow

• Top-down, selective & infrequent

Both Options are Inadequate ...

Do not address the root cause of the problem – The

dynamic nature of the I.T. space
