I read an article on Yahoo in which they discuss 8 career paths that are expected to continue growing in demand. The data is from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and they expect the government spending to help stimulate the growth of these industries.
There will always be trends in jobs and I think that should be taken with a grain of salt, but it is a good idea to take a look at the career path you have planned and make sure it will be around in the future. Are you going to school to be a VCR technician?

Click Yahoo’s article about the best careers for the future to see them all, but these were a few that were included in the list with strong growth potential…

Thanks for sharing such great post about careers for the future, it will surely help many people to get clear decision for their life.
I’m an accountant with a lot of experience and this is the second time in less than 10 years that I have been downsized.

Being downsized two times in less than 10 years is much better than most people’s luck.
