ABSTRACT

Abstract

This chapter sheds light on the ever-important issue of IoT skills development, which is a key prerequisite for the successful development, deployment, and operation of IoT systems. It first reviews the wide array of different IoT skills that aretypically required for the development, deployment, and operation of nontrivial IoT systems, including technical and non-technical skills. Accordingly, it introduces the IoT skills framework of the H2020 EUIoT project, which provides a taxonomy of modern IoT skills, along with an approach for defining skills profiles, as well as related educational activities and learning paths. It also leverages the results of a skills survey to identify popular and high in-demand skills profiles. Finally, it uses the introduced framework to drive the specification of practical learning paths for these profiles.
