Working with our membership, ITAC establishes and sets targets for where Canada's knowledge economy should be compared to key peer/competitor nations. Where we fall short, ITAC determines what we need to do to get there and ensure we do what is needed in areas such as: skills, capital, tax, science & technology, and collaboration.
ITAC believes Canadian businesses should be leaders in the use of ICT for competitive advantage, productivity and growth. Use of ICT by small and medium enterprises should increase towards that of our US counterparts. By partnering with other associations, as well as with Government, we work to ensure public policy supports these goals.
ITAC strives to ensure Federal, Ontario and other Canadian Governments are leaders in ICT use. ITAC positions itself as a trusted advisor to Government. We gather industry leaders and Government together and work to make it easier for our industry to sell to government.
ITAC believes the Canadian healthcare system should be a world-leading user of ICT to achieve superior patient outcomes and cost-effectiveness, as well as fostering development of a world-leading Canadian health ICT industry. ITAC works to correct chronic under-spend on ICT.
ITAC’s view is Canada’s laws should promote leadership in development and use of advanced technology. We want to ensure efficient and cost-effective measures to protect privacy and instill confidence in the e-economy.
ITAC believes that in order for Canada to continue to compete worldwide, we need to promote policies that will ensure a steady supply of talented men and women for our local ICT industry. We work with industry as well as with Federal, Provincial and local governments to establish initiatives to support this goal.

Industry Canada Seeks Input on Talent Needs
Posted February 9, 2012
Industry Canada has commissioned Nordicity to conduct a study of the demand/supply dynamics of ICT professionals in Canada's ICT sector. The survey seeks to identify and understand the current needs and labour market challenges in the sector.
Nordicity is hoping that key sector stakeholders will participate in the 25-minute online consultation to provide important perspective on whether the sources of supply for ICT professional talent meets current and future hiring needs. The reliability of the research depends on broad industry participation. All input will be treated confidentially, and no part of the study will be attributed directly to those who provide information.
The survey is available here.
Any questions about the survey or the overall study can be directed to Nordicity's Kurt Eby.
