Education
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, over 850,000 education positions are projected to open each year, on average. Working in education can be rewarding, as it allows one to help those in their community learn and grow. Beyond teaching students from preschool to college levels, education positions can include librarians, education administrators, school counselors and social workers, museum curators, and more. For those considering teaching but who are not education majors, there are also ways to earn a teaching certificate without a degree in education.
