reslog Inc. (Headquarters: Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture, Representative Director: Katsuya Ono, hereinafter "reslog") has created the "IT School Chaos Map 2026 Edition" (hereinafter "this Map"), visualizing the entire landscape of the IT school (Web design, programming, etc.) market amidst growing attention to the rising demand for reskilling and the shortage of IT human resources as social issues. This map targets working adults and job seekers considering reskilling, organizing 189 schools into 8 categories by purpose, aiming to support comparison and consideration in choosing a school.
Background of Creating the Chaos Map
In recent years, against the backdrop of the rapid spread of Generative AI and the acceleration of DX promotion, the demand for human resources with IT skills is higher than ever. The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry estimates a maximum shortage of approximately 790,000 IT professionals by 2030, and working adults' interest in reskilling is growing year by year.
In response to this situation, the number of IT schools (programming, Generative AI, etc.) has rapidly increased, and currently, hundreds of schools are crowded together. However, the fields covered, learning formats, costs, and whether or not subsidies are supported vary widely among schools, leading to comments that "it is difficult to find a school that suits me."
Therefore, to enable those considering reskilling or career changes to compare and consider the optimal school, we created the "IT School Chaos Map 2026 Edition," which visualizes the overall picture of the IT school market.
Three Trends in the IT School Domain
The three recent trends in the IT school domain are as follows:
(1) Curriculums Utilizing Generative AI in Various Fields
The first trend is the rapid spread of curriculums incorporating Generative AI in schools across various genres such as programming, design, and marketing.
In addition to traditional coding learning, courses to learn the practical application of Generative AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Copilot are being newly established at each school. Since utilizing Generative AI significantly improves development efficiency, an increasing number of schools are aiming to cultivate "engineers and creators who can collaborate with AI."
As the purpose of skill acquisition shifts to "acquiring practical skills applicable in the AI era," the integration of Generative AI into curriculums is now one of the important criteria for choosing a school.
(2) Career Support through Government Reskilling Subsidies
The second trend is the progress in the establishment of reskilling subsidy systems by the national and local governments, expanding the number of eligible schools.
