| Demand outlook | HRDC forecasts about 133 openings a year in INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (2025). Years of backlog: not shown. Withheld. Table 31 lists Information Technology and Science & Technology as separate fields, and IT roles are near-certainly counted across both, so the openings figure for this field alone is not a sound denominator. Dividing by it would describe the way the source is structured rather than the job market. Graduates per opening: not shown. Withheld for the same denominator reason as the backlog figure. These openings are a forecast of need, not posts that are currently being filled. In July 2026 the Directorate of Public Service Management told Parliament's Public Accounts Committee that government "currently do not have the financial capacity to create new vacancies", and that more than 8,000 students now graduate each year while the economy is no longer creating jobs at the same pace. Government policy reserves 80% of entry-level vacancies for new graduates and is achieving about 70%. (Directorate of Public Service Management, evidence to the 62nd sitting of the Public Accounts Committee, reported by Mmegi (July 2026).) This describes the whole field, not this programme alone, and it is not a government waiting list — Botswana publishes no such figure.
