Abstract
Motivated by the trend in industry to seek qualitative, not only quantitative, qualifications from applicants, we have investigated the training of IT professionals from the point of view of practical education. From experimental studies we have found that qualification exam scores do not reflect sufficiently practical abilities. Based on our findings, we propose some possibly effective ways to re-use some exam exam questions to more efficiently evaluate and train IT professionals.
