In some occupations, people can learn the work through an apprenticeship program. Insider was interested in seeing which of these occupations are projected to see employment flourish in the future.
Not only do the above 10 occupations typically require an apprenticeship, but they also typically only need a high school diploma or equivalent for entry, per education data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
All data comes from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Median annual wage data comes from the Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics program. Projections come from the most recent employment projections that look at changes from 2020 to 2030.
Based on the most recent projections, 10 of the 15 jobs that typically need an apprenticeship are projected to see some growth. Among these 10 growing jobs, the highest percent increase is for millwrights. Electricians follow closely behind and is also projected to see the largest change in employment among these occupations, increasing by 66,100.
The base year for the decade projection was 2020, the year where employment across industries tumbled during the beginning of the pandemic and are since on their way back to recovery. More about how the pandemic has impacted the projections for industries and occupations can be found on BLS.
