High-school grads should ask themselves: ‘Am I a people person or someone who prefers to be given a task and be left alone to accomplish it?’

The panorama of post-secondary education opportunities in Canada reflects the changing needs of both the global economy and local priorities.

That, in turn, requires a little self-check before jumping in: “Am I a ‘people person’ or someone who prefers to be given a task and be left alone to accomplish it?”High school grads looking for a career that is less people-oriented and focuses more on mathematics and data analysis might investigate a career opportunity like manager of data and analytics for any number of organizations, which involves everything from data collection to analysis and interpretation.

Data from Universities Canada indicates that computer science and IT programs have seen a 30% increase in enrolment over the past three years, while the Information and Communications Technology Council projects that by 2025, there will be a need for more than 250,000 IT professionals in Canada. Then there are a broad range of career opportunities for outdoor-oriented grads offered by Environment and Climate Change Canada, a branch of the federal government that predicts weather and environmental conditions, works to prevent and manage pollution and promotes examples of clean growth for a sustainable environment.
