Benefits of SFIA

How SFIA can help employers

The most important asset in any organisation is its staff. The SFIA can help employers to make the most effective use of their ICT staff by:

• classifying them against an external framework
• identifying the skills that they require and recognising any shortfalls
• targeting training and development programmes towards the real needs of individuals
• improving competence and the ability of staff to achieve professional and/or vocational qualifications
• identifying individual career development paths.

For full details of SFIA and the organisations that help build the Framework, please refer to the Introduction to the SFIA document. Further information is available under Copy of the Framework.
