The Most in Demand Courses in the Future
>> Feb 15, 2017
In the Philippines, children have been taught the
importance of a good education. This is the reason why they always end up
striving to get into the best international schools in Manila. They believe that getting
into these institutions will help them achieve a life that they will be
satisfied with in the future.
It is significant to acknowledge, however, that
getting into them is not enough. A student must also study and work hard to
achieve success. Plus, if they want to easily get a job after they graduate
from college, then they need to consider taking the following courses:

There are many engineering courses available in
universities across the country. However, at the moment, the most in-demand one
is manufacturing engineering. Mechanical engineering is second while electrical
engineering is third.
According to Richard
Zambacca, president, Randstad Engineering, these degrees
will be highly sought after 2016. Particularly, this is because various
industries – including entertainment and healthcare – will be seeking them out
to work for them. These are all done in support of new, innovative, and
advanced technologies.
Accounting
and Finance

Business degrees such as financial advisors,
actuaries, and accountants have been in-demand for quite some time now.
Different companies and corporations rely on them when it comes to doing
general business and money matters. Individual employees count on them as well
to do their taxes and help them with their retirement plans – essentially
because these things are often not taught to them in school.
At the moment, the highest paid job in the sector
goes to senior accounts. Cost accountants and finance managers get second and
third place respectively.

Bob
Dickey from Randstad Technology and Engineering Group
states that those who took STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics)
courses are going to be highly sought after. He says this will be specifically
because more and more complex issues in business compliance and cyber risk are
going to arise. Companies will be looking for individuals, who have been
trained well to protect their firewalls from hackers and cyber terrorists
alike.
Human
Resources

Human resources or HR (as they are commonly known)
will remain to be an in-demand course. Kathryn
Bolt, group president, Randstad Professionals and
Tatum, says that many organizations in the future will be gravitating towards
HR professionals, who has a wide range of base knowledge and those that have a
specific skill set. This is because the work environment is increasingly
getting difficult. She says that they will be expected to do things like talent
hiring, retention, and succession as well as compensation planning, while also
contributing in business decisions.
Medical
Courses

Those in the medical field, which includes
physicians’ assistants, nurse practitioners, and certified registered nurse
anesthetists, will continue to be in-demand. Primarily, this will happen due to
the surge of the aging population in many first world countries like the United
States of America. People would be looking for professionals, who can look
after their sick and aged loved ones.
Ultimately, these are the courses that are going to
be really popular in the following years. It is completely up to you if you
want to study them once you reach college. But remember that you have to
partner it up with hard work before and after you graduate!
