Training important for tomorrow's career

The work force will continue to grow during the 1980’s. By 1990 the Department of Labor estimates total employment will rise from 102.1 million to bet--ween 119.6 and 127.9 million wokers, an increase which will create as many as 25 8 million new jobs. This expansion of the economy will be stimulated by shifts in population, shifts in the labor force, changes in business practices and advances in technology. And while labor economists expect the employment outlook to improve, especially for entry-level jobs, jobs that offer better pay or advancement will continue to go to individuals with specialized training “It’s slowly becoming commonplace in the job market,” said Henry Herzing, president of the National Association of Trade and Technical Schools,- and educational association representing 500 private career schools. “Employers prefer to hire trained applicants rather than provide training, so the person with previous training or experience who is skilled and ready to work is the person who usually gets the job. ’’ “Most career schools are independent, small, job-oriented, intensive and student-centered,” said Herzing “Their single mission fc to give students job skills to compete in the job

market.” i Until recently a college education was considered one of the best ways to prepare for the job market. But now, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, recent experience shows.the traditional view of a college degree As a guarantee of success is not matched by reality. Between 1968 and 1978, the proportion of college graduates employed in professional and technical occupations declined because the number of jobs did not expand as rapidly as the supply of graduates. One out of every four college graduates took jobs traditionally filled by someone with less schooling, and more graduates than ever before turned to clerical, lower-level sales and blue cellar occupations jo earn a living. From 1970 to 1979,80 percent of the jobs available required training and education while only 20 percent required a four-year degree. “We all learned a valuable lesson from the job market in the ‘7o’.s,’’ said Herzing. “A four-year degree does not guarantee a good job. There are unlimited careers to choose from that can be realized without a college degree.” School accredited by NATTS, now located in 45 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, have been serving the training needs of students since 1965 And according to Herzing, the growing success of these schools can be summed up in a word, “sensitivity." They respond directly to a

student's needs and desires. “The most important question in the trade and technical schools is ‘where are the jobs?”’ said Herzing* “It’s vital to our schools to know how advances in technology and shifts in the labor force are going to affect particular occupations. Unlike colleges and universities, we can’t stay in business if our graduates ultimately settle for jobs which are not related to their area of training.” According to Herzing, another reason accredited trade and technical schools have done so well is because these schools offer success on the student’s terms. “We work hard to eliminate the reasons which have traditionally discouraged individuals from continuing their training beyond high school,” said Herzing. “Our students know they will get more specialized training and finish quicker; thereby, earning more money sooner” According to labor experts, during the ‘Bos the demand for skilled workers will continue; the youth labor force will decline thus easing the stiff competition for entry-level jobs; and once again more college graduates will be available than will be needed to fill jobs that require a college degree. “Career school students are training today for many of tomorrow’s jobs,” said Herzing. “They’re getting ‘handson’ training in occupations for which the Department of Labor has projected substanial growth during the years ahead.” . T. For persons planning for the careers of the ‘Bos, knowing something about, projected growths will be a tremendous asset. But employment prospects alone, according to Herzing, should never be the sole reason for choosing a. career.

“In our free handbook, we advise students to take many factors into con-' sideration before choosing a career, ’V said Herzing. ‘ ‘we recommend that people consider personal interests, salary,., advancement, job demand, job mobili- - ty, working conditions and educational requirements.’’ For a free copy,* readers should write: NATTS. 2021 IC' Street, N.W., Washington, DC 20006-1077. £ Personal interests and abilities leads many people in selecting suitable oc" cupations, but future economic and, social conditions will determine theitfjob opportunities.
