They say that students today will have 12-15 jobs by the time they are 34, does that scare you? I know sometimes it makes me wonder what we need to do so they only have 2-3. Forbes.com wrote an article about the Top 20 Growing and Disappearing Jobs in 2008. The lists compiled by jobs that are from any education level, high school diploma to doctorates. Some of the top 20 Up and coming jobs are, by no surprise to me some of the top up and coming jobs work with operating oil drilling machines and repair. As well surgeons, nurses, fabricators, and here's a weird one, alarm installer
As for the top 20 disappearing jobs, this list comprised of engine and machine assemblers, milling and machinist, seamstress, forest conservationist, and sorry for all you actors and entertainers, your jobs are slowly going away too. So go help your students and show all of them where the jobs are at, but as we all know, in another 5 years this list can completely change!
