High Demand and High Wage Occupations

Post Date:01/26/2024

We have provided a complete picture of each occupation in this guide, organized by the level of education required. For each occupation you will find annual openings, the average annual growth rate, wage information, training and work experience information, a brief description of the occupation, and potential job titles for the occupation. In addition, you will find a listing of knowledge, skills, abilities, and technology commonly associated with each occupation. Occupations in this publication were selected from the Kansas Department of Labor's 2023 High Demand Occupations list. Only occupations with a median wage higher than that of the statewide median wage for all occupations were selected. Wage estimates were obtained from the 2023 Edition of the Kansas Wage Survey, while average annual growth and annual openings were obtained from the 2020-2030 Statewide Long-term Projections.
