Story: IT skills gap costs Britain billions

I agree, most of the IT workers are unskilled, specially those of the 30 to 45 age group. All those I've come across in the past 4 or more years can't even spell properly, they just didn't bother to learn when at school and picked up the minimum of skills by being sent/whatever on Employment Agency courses just because they got paid an extra £10 a week.
I've sat in on one of those courses as an observer and the trainer didn't have much more in the way of knowledge than the people they were training ... couldn't even answer simple IT questions asked by me.
No wonder the workers have little or no skills!!!
