We are entering a new phase of technology disruption that will rival the changes in the 1990's when the internet transformed the world forever. New technology is poised to make the internet seamless and transform the way we work, live and play. This next phase of disruption is going to make technology invisible, making the way consumers get their information and buy products easier and integrated into their everyday lives. 

Employment of computer and information technology occupations is projected to grow 12 percent from 2014 to 2024, faster than the average for all occupations. These occupations are expected to add about 488,500 new jobs, from about 3.9 million jobs to about 4.4 million jobs from 2014 to 2024, in part due to a greater emphasis on cloud computing, the collection and storage of big data, more everyday items becoming connected to the Internet in what is commonly referred to as the “Internet of things,” and the continued demand for mobile computing.
