Digital courses that offer training for teams and individuals ready to further competency for space professionals.Building and operating space systems require additional considerations from IT professionals outside of the traditional IT knowledge base. Designing systems that will operate in space or supporting space operations require more considerations when compared to designing Earthbound systems.
You might wonder why the space industry would need software engineers, network engineers, or coders. There are many ways in which IT professionals fill crucial roles on multi-million-dollar projects within the space industry. The global space economy expanded 9% year-over-year in 2021, celebrating the most rapid growth rate since 2014. Commercial space experiences accounted for a whopping 77% of expenditures.
IT professionals seeking to move into the space industry will become more and more valuable as more companies invest in space technologies. It is no stretch of the imagination to think that future employers will seek to hire new people who already have space knowledge rather than hiring someone with no knowledge they will have to spend time training. Therefore, it is essential for IT professionals to understand how using their skills in the space industry will be different than in other sectors.
