Abstract

FreePint's original research report delves into the critical issue of skills development. We polled around 200 organisations from a variety of sectors and organisations around the world to ask them about areas such as why investment in information skills is essential, the types of training programmes already in place or planned to support information skills development, and the overall culture around development - with specific comments about development for information professionals and development for knowledge workers. Preference for different formats for training are highlighted as well as go-to sources for programmes and training.

The research also included a series of questions to understand the state of strategic planning around skills development, including: the impact of strategy, leadership and organisational culture on information skills investment, strategic planning to meet information skills needs, and budget & resource considerations. We also asked what needs to change in terms of additional or alternative resources or training for information professionals and knowledge workers.
