What is the Fastest Growing Area of Employment?

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics says that one of the fastest growing areas of employment is within Networking Technology.  CNN Money agrees with that assessment, predicting it as the number one area to see double digit growth between now and 2014!

Ahhh, computers!

What kind of opportunities do people have when they complete a Networking Technology program?

Jobs such as data entry and computer operators to Network and computer administrators and analysts. You learn how to provide technical support to both hardware and software systems.

Gary Coman, of Cisco Corporate Affairs, shares some of the reasons that Networking Technology courses should be included within the curriculum of anyone training for or switching to a different career.

1. While you do need basic math and reading skills, you don’t have to be really great at advanced mathematics

2. With networking skills you can get an edge on your job possibilities, as there is a need for people up to speed with technology in every sector imaginable.

3. There are standards for these skills that apply worldwide.  So you can go anywhere you want – the world is your oyster, as they say!
