ICT skills are learned abilities used for the operation of ICT gadgets. This forms one of the fastest expanding skill-sets and is currently in high demand across multiple markets. More than just as an industry of its own, ICT has also permeated into different job functions, evolving from being a specified niche to becoming a basic requirement across different fields. This study therefore examined the impact of acquisition of ICT skills on the economic development in Ogun State. The population used for the study comprised of one hundred and sixty ICT operators, students and ICT administrators in the Three Senatorial District Areas of Ogun State: Ilaro, Itori and Sapade.
