This study analyzes the role of information technology in strengthening basic computer science skills and technical competencies. It addresses the gap between labor market demands and current technical skills, emphasizing the urgent need for IT tools in education and training. Using questionnaires, the study measured participants' views on their use of modern technologies. Descriptive analysis and simple regression were used to identify relationships between key variables.

Results indicated that access to IT tools and internet speed significantly enhances computing skills, with 76.7% of participants affirming the importance of tool availability and 80% noting the impact of internet speed. Additionally, cloud applications and e-learning platforms were shown to support skill enhancement, with a positive correlation found between IT-based training and skill acquisition.

Recommendations include improving access to modern devices and high-speed internet in educational settings, increasing reliance on cloud applications and e-learning platforms, and developing training programs to teach foundational computing skills, with regular assessments to ensure ongoing skill improvement.
