Nevada Education Degrees & Training

Curriculum, Secondary, and Primary Education Degrees in Nevada

The experience you are likely to have going to college in Nevada is as widely varied as the state itself. The mining towns of Eastern Nevada, such as Battle Mountain, Winnemucca and Elko, offer career experience in the resource extraction industry. Then there are the gambling towns of Reno and Las Vegas, which could not be more different from one another. Despite the widespread casinos and their associated nightlife, Reno is an established city with a real down-home feel. Reno has strong community organizations, and a small but hardy arts scene. Las Vegas is, to some, the Eighth Wonder of the World. This is a 24-hour city with world-class opportunities in the fields of entertainment and hospitality. Or perhaps you will be drawn to the serene desert life in the largely empty parts of Nevada between these cities.What Are Career Prospects Like For People With An Education Degree?
In a word: excellent. The Bureau of Labor calculates that education is the largest industry sector in employment terms. It is also predicted to grow by 26.4% between 2002 and 2012 according to the Occupational Outlook Handbook (a Bureau of Labor publication). This is due, in part, to the shortage of teachers and also the fact that many are reaching retirement age or leaving the profession for other reasons. This combined with the baby boom means that opportunities in education are widespread. You may find that training requirements vary widely when seeking employment at different educational establishments. You might need to be accredited in your State, so make sure you check with your college.

What Will I Learn During My Education Degree Training Courses?
Your Education degree courses may include educational theory, curriculum design, student development and presentation skills. If you are interested in teaching a particular subject you will generally be required to have previous industry experience and/or a degree in that subject already. Good written and verbal communication skills are essential as are reasonable levels of math and an ability to explain concepts in a number of different ways. You might find the virtues of patience and good time management pretty useful too!
