Employment Outlook

Careers in this cluster fall into the education, training, and library occupational group used by the Bureau of Labor Statistics for occupational projections.

Education, Training, and Library

Employment in education, training, and library occupations is projected to grow 10 percent from 2020 to 2030, about as fast as the average for all occupations. About 920,500 new jobs are projected to be added from 2020 to 2030. Student enrollment is projected to increase; therefore, postsecondary teachers and preschool, elementary, and secondary school teachers will be needed to meet the demand. Education, training, and library occupations, however, are affected by state and local budgets, and budgetary restrictions may limit employment growth.
