Education is the key factor in the BC job market
Are you looking for a job or deciding on a future Career Path? The employment picture in British Columbia has never been so promising.
According to Statistics Canada, the BC unemployment rate fell in December 2004 to 6.1%. Annual job growth in 2004 was the highest in 10 years, and is expected to increase even more this year.
A wide range of occupations requiring post secondary education is in high demand, from accounting to health services and tourism.
More and more people are opting for educational and training opportunities other than the traditional 4 year University degree, including technical programs, apprenticeships, diploma and certificate programs.

There are great opportunities for students who are graduating from Community and Career Colleges, as they learn the most current industry skills in a much shorter time than a regular 4 year degree.
