CompTIA Survey finds we need more RFID talent

In a new survey by the Computing Technology Industry Association (CompTIA) released during  the RFID World 2006 conference, it was revealed that deployment of RFID technology lacks speed  because of  a shortage of individuals skilled in the technology,.

Seventy-five percent of the technology companies interviewed in CompTIA's survey admitted they do not believe there is a sufficient "pool of talent" in RFID technology to hire from. Whereas, in 2005, 80% of respondents said there was a shortage of RFID talent. This is the tiniest of improments, indeed.

This requires urgent attention by training institutions and government bodies everywhere.
