| |global competition on the pace of developing|
| |and adopting new technologies, are having|
| |significant effects on the labour market|
| |today -- changing where, when and how work is|
| |done, and by whom. These changes are leading|
| |to new work opportunities across today's|
| |competitive environment that demands fast,|
| |decisive, expert and cost-effective|
| |collaboration among geographically dispersed|
| |teams. |
| | |
| |According to Clemson University United States|
| |research, employment of media, advertising,|
| |and public relations personnel are expected|
| |to increase faster than the average for all|
| |occupations through the year 2006. |

|Further substantiated through an| |

|employment requirements for| |
|professional occupation in public| |
|relations, communications and| |
|broadly known as mass| |
|communications, are expected to| |
|increase across a broad range of| |
|industries through 2005, with much| |
|of the increase in the business| |
|services industry. Up to 21 percent| |
|of graduates in Mass Communications| |
|is expected to find employment in| |
|writing, translation, public| |
|relations while a close 20 percent| |
|will find employment in| |
|photography, graphic artists and| |
|related fields. Over the next five| |
|years, this outlook is not expected| |
|to change, as the number of job| |
|openings are expected to be matched| |
|by the number of qualified job| |
|seekers. Graduates in these| |
|occupations work for consulting| |
|firms, corporations, associations,| |
|government, social agencies or are| |
|self-employed. | |
