Information technologies (IT) and information systems (IS) are areas with great capacity to create jobs in the coming years, in almost all sectors of company activities, mobilizing specialized groups of the active population. In the Middle Tagus region, the business fabric that survived the economic and financial crisis is investing in IS/IT, but faces a serious shortage of qualified human resources. This region is attracting IS/IT companies to the sphere of influence of the IPT, such as the hubs of the companies Softinsa (IBM group), CRITICAL Software and Sketchpixel Multimedia & Virtual Effects, which are installed on the IPT campus and who established protocols with this Institution, increasing the demand for these human resources. It should be noted that, as a result of the successful articulation between the CET TPSI and the Degree in Informatics Engineering at the IPT, some of the (former) IPT students work or have completed professional internships at the Poles of these companies. The offer of a TeSP course in TPSI aims to reinforce this articulation and provide greater quantity, quality and diversity of IT/IS technicians for the region.
