Skills Survey 2004: take part, share your thoughts

What do you have to offer the worlds of business and technology? silicon.com would like to know and to do this we have launched our sixth annual Skills Survey.

We are asking for your opinions on business skills such as project management and leadership plus technical stuff such as programming languages. How do you feel about training, contractors and job mobility? Is there a skills shortage?

New to this year, we also want to know if you feel your position is in any way under threat from offshoring and whether you have ever been the victim of ageism - due to being too old or too young.

And while the first half of our annual snapshot is largely a survey of opinions, the second half allows us to profile respondents according to sector, job title, region, hours worked and - most importantly, many would say - salary.

Are those in the UK still relatively better paid than peers in Germany and France? Or has a strengthening euro eroded any differences from previous years?

So take part in Skills Survey 2004 here and look out for the results in March from one of the biggest studies of its type in Europe.

We're even giving away champagne to lucky entrants (though stress all collected data will be anonymous).
