James Toovey, founder and director of Langley James, said that the use of IT contractors and trainees for the Olympics and Paralympic Games will benefit all involved.
'I strongly believe that people should go for voluntary work experience and companies like the Olympics should allow people to come and shadow experienced people to gain commercial experience and also to help with tight deadlines,' he explained.
The use of IT trainees, even those without any specific prior training, will allow IT staff to get jobs done quicker, which is essential on such a tight schedule, because it allows the companies to take on two people for the cost of one.
People who want to volunteer to help out at the London 2012 Olympics need to register online or visit a volunteer centre.
