STEM JOBS-PKG

NATS

IN PROFESSOR ED HOOKS' ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY CLASS.

NATS

STUDENTS LEARN ABOUT THE FUNCTIONS OF THE HUMAN BODY.

SINCE MOST OF THEM ARE HEADED TOWARD A CAREER IN THE MEDICAL FIELD.

LIKE JOEY CAPALDI.

Everybody's trying to get into the medical field, it's a good career opportunity.

THERE ARE 25 STUDENTS IN THIS CLASS.

AND IT'S PACKED EACH SEMESTER.

These classes generally stay full and there's always a demand for them.

ACCORDING TO STATE RESEARCH.

JOB OPENINGS IN FIELDS LIKE SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, AND MATH ARE UP NINE PERCENT COMPARED TO LAST YEAR.

NOT SURPRISING TO THIS INSTRUCTOR.

Those are the areas that were going to constantly see having a demand for people with up to date new knowledge and I don't see that ever changing.

A BREAKDOWN OF THE NUMBER OF ONLINE JOB OPENINGS IN OUR AREA SHOWS LEE COUTNY HAS THE HIGHEST.

AT 1100
