subject: Obama Grants for Moms Make Way for the Future [print this page] There is no wrong time to prepare for your future. In fact now may be the perfect time to work on your education and other career goals. Working mothers and even those who stay at home can really benefit. Several career areas will experience significant growth, and there will be a need to fill many positions. There are plenty of careers that will open up in the technology sector. For work and play most people use several forms of sophisticated technology. It takes many people to develop these products as well as to help people use them. Computer software engineering and related fields will be increasingly needed. Two other well-regarded careers are network systems analysts and data communications analysts. Healthcare is another field where there will be significant need for many years. There are plenty of important careers besides being a doctor or nurse. Occupational and physical therapists are important as well as their assistants. Some analysts also think behavioral disorder counselors will be highly sought. There are many fields that don't require a medical degree but rather specialized training are specific coursework. Although the job outlook appears dark now, there is still reason to be optimistic. Financial planners and advisors, computer analysts and a number of other professions are important now and will continue to be so in the future. One common thread among all these jobs is that you need the proper education. If you're a mother, you may think your chance has passed but there are programs tailored just for you. The education Grants for Moms program endorsed by President Obama is meant to help mothers of all kinds. By making it easier to get as much as $5,000 for their education, the administration is trying to encourage eager women to go back to school or even to go for the first time. Hopefully more mothers can earn the bachelor's, associate's and specialized degrees that are needed to fill important positions in the work force. The Obama scholarships for moms are giving many women the chance to educate themselves and to provide for their families. Universities and junior colleges all around the country have worthy programs of study for all kinds of interests. If you're a mother who is thinking of going to school, you should look around to see what you can do.
