With fast-evolving and emerging technologies in the ICT industry, skill and competency gaps among ICT graduates from HEIs continue to increase exponentially. This dilemma is made worse by the existing misalignment between ICT skillsets offered within graduate and undergraduate programmes, and those the industry expects. To avert this trajectory, industry-aligned ICT re-tooling and re-skilling short courses were identified to suitably fill this gap better because of their shorter review period. To this effect, an industry-aligned ICT short course development framework and implementation tool for HEIs has been developed. This framework and tool will allow for agility in the development and review of ICT short course curriculum to reflect the demands of the marketplace (industry). This study was therefore conducted to determine the constituent elements or processes of an industry-aligned ICT short course development framework (ADDIER Model) and implementation tool (ADDIER tool). Further, to increase stakeholder involvement, teamwork, and collaboration in all ADDIER processes, an information system (IS) has been designed to digitalize and automate these processes within the ADDIER tool. The study being descriptive and explorative, a qualitative research design was preferred comprising of interviews, survey, observation, and desk reviews as data collection methods. Selective sampling was used to qualify research respondents from among stakeholders. www.ijirk.com 52 | P a g e google forms, and MS Excel. Lucid Charts online application was used to draw UML diagrams for the IS designs. Focused group discussions were used to validate the usability of the developed ADDIER framework, implementation tool and IS designs. The researcher recommends more study to be done using quantitative approaches to validate implicit causal assertions, revise this model for application under institutionalized programmes, and development of the designed system into a prototype for further testing and eventual adoption.
