subject: Mothers, Are You Prepared for the Future Job Market? [print this page] The economy may be in a slump, but it's still smart to invest in your future. This is especially true for working, single and stay at home moms. Earning a grant can lead to obtaining an important degree that can help land the perfect job for you. Jobs in many technology-related areas will be in high demand for years. Digital and wireless capabilities continue to advance, and new technology is being developed constantly. Technological systems are often complex which is why intelligent people are needed to help make them accessible to society. Various job market projections list computer software engineering as a hot job for the future. Analysts for network systems and data communications are also expected to be important careers. 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. Physical and occupational therapy are expected to see growth. Mental health counselors are also expected to be in increased demand. Many healthcare jobs require advanced education, but there are many opportunities available for careers that don't. Job growth and opportunity is lagging now, but expectations for the future are high. Computer analysts as well as research and market analysts will no doubt be sought after by businesses. Education is the key to getting a job in any of these areas. There are many programs available for people willing to learn, especially for moms. The recent Grants for Moms initiative was started by President Obama and his administration. 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. Now moms who want to advance their education can afford to get the degrees they want and need. Women have plenty of responsibility for caring for children and families, and hopefully the grants for moms can take some of the burden off trying to get an education. There interesting majors and topics of study at quality schools around the country. The road to your future can begin now with a quality education.
