本研究调查了加纳信息技术(IT)领域本科生的就业技能。这项研究的主要目的是:确定雇主在IT项目中所要求的最重要的就业技能;确定资讯科技专业本科生所掌握的就业技能;确定雇主在资讯科技领域所要求的就业能力技能与大学生从资讯科技项目所获得的技能之间是否存在有意义的差异;以确定如何提高资讯科技专业本科生的就业能力。数据收集自加纳IT行业的雇主和阿克拉技术大学(ATU)的学生。本研究采用混合方法研究。进行了一次访谈，检索雇主期望的就业技能，然后使用数据设计了一个在线调查，用于收集数据，然后分析数据，回答研究问题。关键发现是，学生和雇主都认为沟通技能是一项重要的通用就业技能。其次，雇主希望学生在IT方面具备以下技能:排除网络系统问题，解决网络设备和软件故障;具备前端和后端软件开发知识;现场安装、系统配置和维修;将计算机和用户账户分配给具有适当访问权限的适当组;了解最佳的网络安全实践。与此同时，学生们认为自己具备的技能有:高水平的客户服务和对客户的支持;精通HTML/CSS;安装、测试和配置新的工作站、外围设备和软件。在IT项目或任何团队工作中自我激励和激励他人是雇主最希望学生获得的情商技能，而学生实际获得的情商技能是在解决紧急情况下的技术问题时有效管理情绪。雇主期望的就业技能与学生实际获得的就业技能之间没有显著差异。为提高资讯科技学生的就业技能，当局提出以下建议:为使所有资讯科技学生都必须接受实践训练，或延长实践训练的时间，资讯科技部门应与资讯科技业界的雇主接触，了解他们所需的就业技能，并更新技术设备，以训练资讯科技部门的学生。

This study investigated the employability skills of undergraduate students from the Information Technology (IT) field in Ghana. The main objectives of the study were:  to ascertain the most significant employability skills in the IT program required by employers; to ascertain the employability skills that have been achieved by the undergraduate students in the IT program; to determine if there was any meaningful difference between the employability skills demanded by the employers in the field of IT and skills undergraduates obtain from IT program; to ascertain how the employability skills of undergraduate students in the IT program could be improved. Data was collected from employers in the IT industry in Ghana and students from Accra Technical University (ATU). This study made use of the mixed method approach. An interview was conducted to retrieve employability skills expected by employers and then used the data to design an online survey which was used in gathering data after which the data was then analysed to answer the research questions. The key findings were that both students and employers considered communication skills as an important generic employability skill.  Next, employers expected students to achieve the following technical skills in IT: Troubleshooting network system problems and solve networking devices and software faults; Knowledge in front and back-end software development; On-site installation, system configuration, and repair; Assigning computers and user accounts to proper groups with appropriate access permissions; and Understanding in the best networking security practices. Meanwhile, students rated the following technical skills to be highly achieved by them: High level of customer service and support to clients; Highly skilled in HTML/CSS; and Installation, testing and configuring new workstations, peripheral equipment and software. Self-motivation and motivating others during an IT project or any team work was the emotional intelligence skill that employers expected students to achieve the most while the actual emotional intelligence skill students had achieved was Managing emotion effectively when solving technical problems for people in an urgent situation. There was no significant difference between the employability skills expected by employers and the employability skills students had actually achieved. The recommendations given to improve employability skills of IT students were: to make practical training mandatory for all IT students, to extend the time period required for practical training, the IT department should engage with employers from the IT industry to know the employability skills they require, to update the technological equipment for training students in the IT department.
