Job Prospects
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics the employment of education administrators is projected to grow about as fast as average, as education and training take on greater importance in everyone’s lives.
Job opportunities for many of these positions should be excellent due to:
- a large proportion of education administrators are expected to retire over the next 10 years.
- growth in enrollments of school-age children and postsecondary education, particularly in schools that cater to working adults.
- the increasing amount of administrative responsibilities placed on individual schools, particularly related to monitoring student achievement.
