Trends of the Future

What did you find most interesting?

I found the fact that over 60% of the jobs younger students are being trained on will be overtaken and radically changed by the time we're old enough to major in that industry. I find this absolutely mid blowing as most of the jobs that younger people are wanting as a career path may not be an option in the future. 

Top Three Growth Industries:
The top three growth industries by 2025 are heath care and social assistance, professional, scientific and technical services, and education and training. I wasn't necessarily surprised by the health care and social assistance industry  as the early 1900s is said to be the baby boomer time. This means that all those babies that were born during the early 1900s are now our grandparents and are getting older by the day. Which means that there will be a massive number of older people coming into age care homes and needing assistance in their daily lives. This will lead to more jobs in this department being open. I am personally interested in the scientific services as I would love to work and help animals, in particular horses or marine life.

I would definitely say I'm no the most technical person in the world and that there is definitely room for improvement. Way of improving my digital literacy and my technical skills are

Knowing about Trends:
I did find knowing about the trends interesting as some of these jobs you wouldn't believe would be one of the highest qualified or grown industries by 2025. I also believe that knowing about these trends will help greatly with future employees exploring possible career choices as its helpful to know what jobs will have a wide availability for employment.
