Canadian Occupational Projection System (COPS) - 3 views

  •  
    I find this website very helpful. It is a tool to find quick information about projections of the demand of specific occupations in Canada. Under the heading "projection summaries" then "occupational summaries" you are able to search for occupations to find out about projections for the years 2013- 2022.

    I found this site very useful for seeing how an occupation will be affected in the short-term by people entering and leaving the job, by trends, and other statistics. Sorry for the duplication, I reviewed this site then the duplication was pointed out, I was not aware.

Canadian Salary Range - A - 0 views

  •  
    This website is interesting because you can learn about salaries and wages which is crucial when looking in to occupational information. Each job is also led with an NOC number which provides details on qualifications and what type of training is required. You can search any job title and with just entering your postal code, you can see the average wages for that occupation.

The hunt for qualified workers: employers have 300,000 unfilled manufacturing jobs - 0 views

  •  
    This article helps to reveal the unfilled positions in the US labour market, which has serious implications on the future of American manufacturing. Traditional skills and occupations have decreased significantly in modern society, and there are fewer people interested in obtaining the experience or knowledge to do such jobs.

Skills and training by the numbers - 0 views

  •  
    I found this article very interesting, even though it is just statistics. One stat that stayed with me is the ratio of guidance counsellors to students in Canadian high schools is 371:1. I was surprised at this ratio, considering that the decisions a student makes in high school will have a great affect on their postsecondary education, training, or occupation options.
