1994-95 Career Guide to Industries — 1995-02-21

The Career Guide to Industries, published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, is becoming one of the government's primary career reference books. First published in 1992, the Career Guide already has proven useful to students, counselors, and jobseekers in making informed career decisions and to education and training planners in assessing what training programs will best meet the needs of the U.S. economy over the next 10 to 15 years. This second edition of the Career Guide covers 40 industries, accounting for over 7 out of 10 wage and salary jobs in the economy. For each industry, the Career Guide presents the expected employment changes to the year 2005. The Career Guide discusses careers from an industry perspective, whereas the BLS companion publication, the Occupational Outlook Handbook, has addressed careers from an occupational perspective for nearly 50 years.
