The uptake of cloud computing has been projected to grow at a massive rate over the next few years and this will in turn transform the types of skills needed in enterprise.The problem is, there aren't enough people who know how to work with cloud services to cover the demand, making cloud architects some of the most sought-after people in the job market. This is the time for people in IT to gain these very specialist skills and start earning anything from $120,000 to $135,000.

MoocLab has hand-picked a list of MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) from top universities and organisations to help you master some of the most in-demand skills in IT today.
