In-Demand Jobs Week Coming in May

 

The sixth annual In-Demand Jobs Week is May 1-5, 2023! In-Demand Jobs Week is the statewide celebration of the jobs, industries, and skills that are in-demand in Ohio.

 

This year, In-Demand Jobs Week will highlight Ohio’s top jobs that stem from career-focused education and the various paths available to Ohioans as they look for their next opportunity. 

 

Example Career Pathways available in Ohio include: 

 

Career Technical Education - provides students of all ages with the academic and technical skills, knowledge and training necessary to succeed in future careers and to become lifelong learners. 

 

Pre-Apprenticeships - teaches entry level technical and job-readiness skills for an apprentice occupation to prepare students for a formal Registered Apprenticeship training program upon graduation. 

 

College Credit Plus - helps students earn college and high school credits simultaneously by taking college courses from local colleges or universities while in high school. 

 

Industry-Recognized Credentials - demonstrates the knowledge and skills students gain through hands-on learning in a specific job or industry. 

 

Business, education, and community leaders statewide are encouraged to partner to plan events promoting all of Ohio’s opportunities, job-readiness, and more to inspire excitement and awareness among students and job seekers. 

 

Organizations can add their event to the statewide interactive event map by emailing In-DemandJobs@JFS.Ohio.Gov with the event title, date, time, and a short description of the event.
