Introducing the Skills Framework for the Information Age (SFIA)
SFIA serves as a universal reference model for identifying the skills required to develop efficient information systems using information technologies. It features a straightforward and logical two-dimensional framework, categorising areas of work and levels of responsibility.
The overarching purpose of SFIA is to assist organisations employing IT professionals in:
- Mitigating IT project risk
- Retaining valuable staff
- Streamlining recruitment processes
- Enhancing the effectiveness and efficiency of the IT function
SFIA contributes to organisational effectiveness by facilitating the development and deployment of the right skills while defining suitable development and career pathways for IT professionals. Its emphasis on professional skills, rather than particular technical skills, ensures it is accessible and comprehensible to a diverse audience, including:
- IT professionals and their managers in industry and government
- HR managers, professionals, and training staff
- Non-technical managers
- Lecturers and curriculum planners in education and training organisations
SFIA is adaptable and relevant for use in any organisation employing IT professionals across various industries and government sectors.
