The purpose of this booklet is to acquaint students as well as school counselors and teacher s with the major occupations providing opportunities for non-college bound youth. The occupations listed were selected from a number of occupational surveys conducted by the Wisconsin State Employment Service. Occupations chosen are those in which the number of opportunities are expected to increase and, more importantly, those which provide opportunity for the high school graduate to get a start without going to college. Certain other occupations are omitted, either because the number of job openings each year are relatively insignificant, o r because they fail to offer career potential. As a whole, occupations listed in this publication constitute approximately 80 percent of the jobs for which a recent high school graduate could qualify. Occupational areas include automobile mechanics, building trades, darfting, fire and police protection, health services, machine operators--skilled and semi-skilled, office occupations, supervisory occupations, and a career in government.
