As of January 27th, 2010 - Pace University and SkillPROOF Inc. have released the Pace/SkillPROOF IT Job Index Report for Q4/2009.
Our cautious optimism for the 4th quarter was on target. As the overall labor market shed an additional 85,000 jobs in December despite a 4,000 job gain in November, the Pace/SkillPROOF IT Index registered a dramatic 47 percent increase, jumping from 43 to 63. After dropping steadily for the past few years, this increase is certainly a promising indicator.
