Instead of watching ads on television, why not make them? Instead of just buying the latest hot CD, why not be part of the team that creates the image? The fields of advertising and communication are dynamic and exciting, and with the right career training you could be a part of the action.
Advertising professionals and public relations, promotions, marketing, and sales managers are involved with many critical company operations. These include sales, advertising, market research, marketing strategy, pricing, product development, promotion, and public relations activities.
During the next decade 2006-2016, intense domestic and global competition in products and services offered to consumers will spur job growth.
