Information and Communication Technology (ICT) encompasses a broad spectrum of skills, roles, and environments. Key roles include ICT technicians, developers, and network managers. The environment where ICT systems are deployed often necessitates modifications to accommodate specific needs, such as reducing noise in a computer-filled classroom.
