Computer support is a vital role at just about any company, big or small, as computers increasingly become an integral part of every aspect of a business: if an office’s computer system goes down, operations at the business will grind to a halt. As a result, the demand for skilled computer support professionals continues to grow.

By 2026, 557,100 new jobs are expected in the computer and information technology occupations according to the U.S. Department of Labor, as there is a shift towards cloud computing, the collection and storage of big data, and information security.
