Stop Calling Us IT Technicians Starting May 1st

The operations and maintenance positions are mostly referred to as computer repair technicians, network cable installers, surveillance system repairers, printer repairers, etc.To correct the widespread misunderstanding of the IT industry, I am specifically publishing this article today to explain that IT is not just about performing the above tasks, but also encompasses many technical and development roles.

IT (Information Technology)

refers to the comprehensive field that utilizes technologies such as computers, networks, software, and electronic devices

for the storage, processing, transmission, and management of information.

Its core objective is to enhance efficiency, solve problems, and support business innovation through technological means.

IT technology permeates almost all industries, and the main application areas are as follows:
