The Growing Need for Data/ Big Data Skills
“I’ll pause for a moment so you can let this information sink in.”
– By 2018, there will be 4 million big data-related positions in the United States that require quantitative and analytical skills, but a shortfall of 1.5 million data-savvy managers and analysts to fill them. (McKinsey Global Institute)
– The job market for various data analyst disciplines is growing at an annual rate of 27%. (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics)

Career Pathway:
a “well-articulated sequence of quality education and training offerings and supportive services that enable educationally underprepared youth and adults to advance over time to successively higher levels of education and employment in a given industry sector or occupation.” (Center for Postsecondary and Economic Success, 2013)
![Page 8: Tools for Building a Big Data Career Pathway Summit 2018... · 2020-04-20 · Tools for Building a Big Data Career Pathway Joyce Malyn-Smith, Principal Investigator Education Development](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070722/5f01be907e708231d400d426/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Interpretation of GAPS
0 = Our college is meeting industry’s need for this skill or knowledge set.Adjustments to our curriculum are not needed.
1 = Our college and local industry have similar views on this job function and/or performance activity. Curriculum adjustments may not be needed.
2 = Our college and local industry view this job function and/or performance activity differently. We need to discuss this with local industry partners and determine what curriculum adjustments might be needed.
3 = Our college is not meeting industry needs related to this job function and/or performance activity. Consideration needs to be given to the job function and/or work activity and whether it should be added or removed from the curriculum. Dialogue needs to be initiated with industry partners to discuss this skill or knowledge set.
