We have in Rolls-Royce for a number of years read with interest the reports of the work of the Computer Personnel Research Group, now a Special Interest Group of ACM. We have all been impressed by the determination with which the group has tackled the outstanding problems of staffing Computing and Data Processing departments and with the attention to detail so necessary in work of this nature. I would like to begin therefore by saying how glad I am to be at this Conference and how much I appreciated the invitation of Bob Dickmann to give a paper on the problems of selecting and developing computer staff in the United Kingdom.
