The average wage in 2007 for a person with a high school diploma was $ 33,600. For someone with a college education but no degree, the average was $ 39,100.

"The SREB States faces a major challenge to help students more fully with a university degree,''Council President Dave Spence said in June ... College is less affordable for most families, and we must help students complete degrees more if our countries must continue to grow and prosper.''

This is the key. "Tennessee and all the southern states are more people with four degrees, two years of specialized vocational training, and grays,''Mr. Richard." Higher education is the key to a better paid job, particularly in difficult economic conditions.''

Higher levels of education represent better opportunities for us all and a better quality of life of citizens when it comes to things like health care.

He presented data which show the forecast employment growth of jobs expected to exceed the state, including ticket buyers, providers, retailers and nurses.

A degree of offers real security for Employment Administration

Since the recession began in December 2007, 7.4 million people have lost their jobs. With nearly 10% of the U.S. population is unemployed, people who worry about their future and what can be done to ensure safety. A level of management can provide the security they need - whatever the field you have chosen for your career.

How does a certain degree of work safety management? Many people who have problems with their jobs or they do not reach the expected success in his career did not fail because they failed to do their job, but why not learn a successful business.

People who work hard for their years of training for their careers, but when they have finished school and the strike alone, often find that what they learned, was simply not enough. They may be one of the best doctors, lawyers, musicians, mechanics, computer specialists or consultants that the world has ever seen, but in the end may be unemployed or working in a field other than their career. Just do not know they have more customers, recruit and retain quality personnel, manage the finances of the company, or to survive in tough economic times like we face today.

Others, realizing they do not know anything about business, working as an employee, rather than risk not as an entrepreneur - the premise that if someone has a job and are recruiting employees, they know what they're doing. As can be witnessed by millions of Americans out of work, the assumption is incorrect. The only real security is job is to understand the business - what makes it work, what makes it less, and how to adapt business practices to adapt to the changing economic climate.

In terms of management covers all aspects of management - human resources, accounting and production of marketing and public relations. A grade of running a school with a reputation for making the graduates of that business success enables graduates to solve business problems, regardless of industry, regardless of economic conditions.

Employees who understand the business and can contribute to its success will be the last to go, when the going gets tough. And if the worst happens, there's always room for another company for someone with a degree of administration and knows his stuff.
