Travel to the Top 20 Alabama Jobs

The Health and Medical jobs of Registered Nurse (RN license) is the hottest job in all of Alabama for the 21st Century, offering over 2,000 new job openings annually and expected to continue this trend through at least the hear 2020. .

A variety of businesses employ RNs, from hospitals and medical centers to onsite corporate clinics and the mini-clinics seen popping up in grocery stores and drug stores in the 21st century. As the average age of the American population increases and the large number of Baby Boomers retire and age, requiring further health care in the next decades, the demand for RNs should continue to be strong and to increase.

A wide variety of other types of occupations round out the Top 20 Hot Jobs in Alabama. These include positions in the Tourism and Service industries, Information Technology (IT), Human Services, Food Service, Management, Truck Driving. The Clergy has become a Top Job supplier at Number 12 on the list. Opportunities abound in Alabama.

The Aerospace Industry is expanding exponentially, especially with vision of Space Tourism coming into reality on the Space Coast along states like Alabama and Florida (the original Space Coast State). Once predicted to close down entirely, Space Camp (see links) has instead expanding into about a dozen programs. Some of these vacation and training combined experiences will be a first step to individuals, families, educators, and business people that want to avail themselves of Space Tourism and fly into space and to the Moon and Mars in the future. The Aerospace Industry will need large numbers of employees in IT, Healthcare, Services and Tourism, to name but a few.

In the 1970s, Ponderosa Steakhouses purchased the first rights to open a restaurant on the old space station. However the time limit ran out and the old station was discarded. From nearly 40 years ago, business people predicted that business would be big in relation to the Aerospace Industry. I think they were correct. I also predict that the Aerospace Industry and Space Tourism will provide thousands of new jobs to replace jobs that have been lost to overseas outsourcing and obsolescence.An exciting future awaits current and future workers among the stars and on the Space Coast.

Space Camp® is a delight in Huntsville, Alabama, a beautiful city and good place to visit on its own. I have always enjoyed trips top Huntsville. At one time, consideration was given to closing down the space related adventure locations, but it instead grew with the economy. Today, space camping adventures are available for kids, adults, business groups and specifically for teachers. Day Camps and camps for special needs individuals, particularly the vision challenged are all popular as well. Everyone can have fun in space while learning something new.

The US Space and Rocket Center is nearby and a dozen museums, shops, and movies are also offered. There is also an annual HJall of fame and baquet each summer and resources for alumni participants in the camps. See the link above for more of the exciting information.
