34. Supply and demand trends indicate that by 2013 (source e-skills) a high demand will exist for “high level technical skills and business/managerial/customer oriented skills” Developer profiles will be less demanded Orientation for needed skills topics to be covered by trainings per job type/function Bigplayersshould have IPv6 embedded in the certification schemes as is IPv4 16 June, 2010

42. Scenario based prospective analysis Evaluated in survey, interviews and expert groups Scenarios Scenario 1: short term adoption of IPv6 (within the next 2 years) The shortage of IPv4 addresses creates a massive last minute integration of IPv6 Scenario 2: medium term adoption of IPv6 (within the next 5 years) The IPv4 addresses shortage does not create an abrupt transition Scenario 3: long term adoption of IPv6 (within the next 10 to 15 years) In this configuration, the previous scenario is even prolonged. No technical considerations (dual stack, tunnelling …) for transition taken into account here. Proposed scenarios 16 June, 2010

43. Training providers do not foresee any dependence between their pricing strategy and the pace of IPv6 integration Training costs and pricingstrategy 16 June, 2010

44. The majority of votes go toward courses up to 1 week which is a typical duration for professional trainings In the case of an urgent adoption, both beneficiaries and providers anticipate a need for short courses (shorter than 1 day ) Duration 16 June, 2010

45. Interviews confirm the trends Qualitative evolution 16 June, 2010 IPv6 adoption to rapidly increase from now to the next 3 to 5 years
