ICT offshoring is not a new phenomenon, nor is it one which is likely to become old anytime soon. Many companies see ICT offshoring not only as a tried and true cost saving method but a necessity to remain competitive in the market. Although many attempts at offshoring IT projects fail, the competitive advantage offered overall by this practice is not something that can be legislated away by protectionist movements. IT workers need not go into a catatonic state of fear but need to understand how offshoring can advance their careers past the comparatively monotonous routine of programming and train themselves up for the roles that arent being outsourced.
