It would be useful to have those two trajectories: human resource managers, on the one hand, and computer scientists at increasingly senior levels, on the other. A change like that would improve the quality of IT services in the public service.
The most important thing to note is that the IT occupational group in government includes both technical support officers, who are at the lower end of the scale, and cybersecurity or cloud computing experts, for example. We often hear IT officials suggest that the occupational group should be divided in two, so that there are experts in software development, cloud computing or cybersecurity, and then the more traditional IT positions, such as technical support officer, team manager and other services of that kind. There would be a great advantage to splitting that occupational group in two. It would make it easier to hire experts, who are not currently being offered a competitive salary.
