In a press statement released by the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) on Dec. 1, 2011, the agency reveals that the country is in need of several other professions for the coming years.
The following are the professions needed: optometrists, nutritionist-dietitians, guidance counselors, mining engineers, geologists, social workers, medical technologists, pharmacists, metallurgical engineers, librarians, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and psychologists. These professions indicated low enrollment turn-out in the past years.
According to PRC Chairperson Teresita R. Manzala and Commissioner Jennifer Manalili, while some professions are now suffering from an oversupply of licensed professionals such as teachers, nurses, and criminologists, many other courses have been undersubscribed in the past years. Hence, the need to inform the public of what courses and professions may be considered by high school graduating students and their parents.However, a well-informed choice will give better employment assurance in the future. Based on the career guide of the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE), there are several in-demand occupations for the next five to ten years including fields of agriculture, forestry, information technology, engineering, industrial fields, and business-related ventures. For a detailed information of which career path has higher propensity for assured employment, go to DOLE website under "career guide".#TheOrientalBaylander
