• Over the next five years, although job growth will be modest to slow across the board, it is projected to be slightly higher for jobs that require both the lowest and highest levels of education.

– The largest net gains in employment for jobs that require less than a high school education will be in the leisure and hospitality sector.

– The second largest growth will be in the professional and business services sector, with additional jobs appearing in construction as that sector continues to recover.

• For jobs requiring just a high school education, employment growth is spread across several industries.

– Professional and business services, leisure and hospitality, and health services have the largest net gains.

– Wholesale and retail trade, as well as the recovering construction and government sectors, will also show gains.

– Jobs requiring high school or less than high school education are not projected to return to their 2007 level until 2014. http://www.urban.org/uploadedpdf/412591-Labor-Market-and-Demographic-Analysis.pdf
