我们真的那么缺IT人员吗?

美国IT人才的“短缺”问题再次浮出水面，争论仍在继续。这种短缺是真的吗?会编码的美国人真的不够多吗?根据软件和信息产业协会(SIIA)的说法，存在这样的短缺。他们敦促国会领导人支持第5882号决议，该决议“将有助于减少美国的劳动力短缺，为外国出生的高技能工人提供前几年因政府处理延误而未使用的就业绿卡”。可能美国确实缺少受过培训和具备技能的开发人员。但是，这种短缺是如何确定的?在其发展过程中采用了什么标准?我不是在反驳可能存在的短缺，而是SIIA提出的解决方案。他们的解决方案是允许更多“高技能”个人持有就业绿卡进入美国。虽然这将是一个短期的解决方案，但它不能解决有关公司和个人的长期需求。我认为一个更好的长期解决方案是让公司和高等教育机构培训更多的开发人员。 If companies train their own employees, or develop a training program for new employees, they would potentially have a more loyal work force, but at least they would have a higher skilled employee base. How would this help overall? By training your own employees they would potentially earn a higher wage which would in turn assist the economy. When viewing the possibility that a shortage of skilled IT personnel exists you have to look at both short and long term solutions. The short may be to bring in workers, but only for a limited time until you train or grow your own workers. Looking overseas isn’t necessarily the only solution.
