Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT (CGEIT) — Question 131

Which of the following is the MOST important input for the development of a human resources strategy to address IT skill gaps?

Answer options

• A. Technology direction of the enterprise
• B. Training budget allocated for IT staff
• C. A recent IT skills matrix
• D. Training effectiveness reports

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as a recent IT skills matrix provides an up-to-date overview of existing skills and gaps within the organization, which is essential for developing an effective strategy. While the training budget (B) and training effectiveness reports (D) are important, they do not directly identify the specific skill gaps that need to be addressed. The technology direction of the enterprise (A) is relevant but secondary to understanding the current skills landscape.
