»JONATHAN DAVIS: MCO Careers can be in medicine, utilities
911 call centers, transportation, and many other places
However, the skills needed to excel in a mission critical career
stay the same »MITCHELL SEPAUGH: Industry recognizes a growing need for people to be
employed in the mission critical operations field. These include
people in both the information technology side of things as well as the industrial
systems side of things. These are in industries ranging from
utilities, manufacturing, government, healthcare, production
banking and finance. Society for Manufacturing
Engineers is currently in a campaign to boost workforce readiness and
promote employee development. They say that despite high general unemployment and critical shortage
of skilled workers threatens the future of manufacturing in America and experts say
that if it is not addressed now, this crisis will dangerously accelerate in the next decade
Following up on that, the Automation Federation states that
companies cannot possibly succeed in the long term without attracting talent from
future generations. They spell out that the shortage of employees is caused
in part by the retiring baby-boomer generation.
