Why Career Development is Important Today!!!!
The economy and the workplace are changing rapidly at an accelerated pace. We are now in a "New Economy," and here are a few realities facing the American worker:
- A world that three of four new jobs will require a high school education and almost a third will be filled by college graduates.
- Most workers will change their jobs seven to eleven times over their work years.
- The average length of stay on a job is expected to be three to four years.
- Over half the population in the United States began their present career or job without any conscious goal or plan.
- 90% of all scientific knowledge has been generated in the last 30 years. In the next 10 to 15 years this pool of knowledge will double again.
- Future jobs will be restructured about every seven years.
- The life cycle for electronics products and processes already have collapsed to three to five years.
- As a result, any set of skills can be obsolete in five to ten years.
