Career Outlook
According to the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics:

“As the population grows, electricians will be needed to wire new homes, restaurants, schools, and other structures that will be built to accommodate the growing population. In addition, older buildings will require improvements to their electrical systems to meet modern codes and accommodate higher electricity consumption due to the greater use of electronic equipment in houses and workplaces.  New technologies also are expected to continue to spur demand for these workers.”
