What’s the secret to getting into a successful digital career? Which universities offer the best programmes? Am I the right person for the job?

With an estimated 600,000 vacancies in digital technology in the UK *, the sector is keen to attract all the available talent into tech roles, with greater emphasis than ever on inclusion and diversity.
