The document discusses how information and communication technologies (ICT) are creating new jobs both within the ICT industry itself as well as by empowering workers in other industries. The ICT industry has grown significantly in recent years, contributing 5.1% to Australia's GDP and employing over 600,000 workers. However, there is still demand for 100,000 more ICT workers over the next six years. Some of the skills that will be important for the future include cross-disciplinary STEAM skills, problem solving, and collaborative skills.
