Careers in Health Care
We understand that employment prospects are a major consideration when making decision regarding your education. Typically, our graduate employment rates are very high and average between 95 – 100%.
On average, employment prospects for the health professions we educate are good. The most recent statistical information indicates that for most of our professions:
- Employment grew at an above-average rate.
- Hourly wages are above average, and the rate of wage growth is close to the average.
- The unemployment rate is below average.
Employment forecasts are generally positive as well:
- The employment growth rate will likely be above average because of ongoing trends--a growing and aging population that requires more health services, new technologies that improve the ability to diagnose disease, increased government funding for health care, and Canadians with health care insurance that covers more services
- Although the retirement rate will likely be average, the number of retiring workers should contribute to job openings.
- The number of job seekers will likely match the number of job openings.
