Numerous career opportunities await those interested in pursuing degrees in the Education, Health and Helping professions. Employment opportunities abound in Nevada school districts.

Nevada continues to be the fastest growing state in our nation and Nevada’s student population continues to grow even faster. Many of these students (typically 10%) are and will be in need of “special education services” in order to meet their educational goals.

Nevada school districts are facing and will continue to face a critical shortage of “special education service” providers. Nevada needs people to study and pursue careers as Special Education Teachers, School Counselors, School Nurses, School Psychologists, Occupational Therapists, Physical Therapists, and Speech Pathologists/Therapists. These are rewarding positions with guaranteed employment in Nevada as well as other states.

We need your help in “getting the word out” to your students about these professions. We encourage and urge you to share the informational links below with all your students who are looking forward to completing their college education.
