CALGARY, Alberta (PRWEB) July 11, 2006



A brand new healthcare career education section on World Wide Learn, the world's premier online directory of education (http://www. worldwidelearn. com), addresses issues related to the growing healthcare crisis. World Wide Learn's feature healthcare article reveals that the next decade will see a 56% increase in need for home health aides, and an overwhelming shortage of healthcare workers in general. The new healthcare career education section (http://www. worldwidelearn. com/healthcare/home. php) offers salary and other information on careers, and helps individuals find healthcare education programs to prepare them for a healthcare career.



"With the Baby Boomer generation getting near retirement, there are going to be greater demands placed on the healthcare industry," World Wide Learn's managing producer Jason Menayan said. "That also means that there is going to be a greater need for healthcare education. That's where World Wide Learn can help."



Current Bureau of Labor Statistics information places healthcare as the fastest growing industry in the U. S. The education and health services supersector is expected to grow at more than a 30% rate; essentially, 3 out of every 10 new jobs will be in this sector. The World Wide Learn healthcare feature article claims that a nursing shortage will also drive demands for new healthcare workers.



World Wide Learn assists education-seekers with information about several different careers including:



 Nursing  Dental hygiene  Nutrition  Health information  Occupational therapy



With both online education and campus-based education options available, World Wide Learn helps students find the right learning institution for their healthcare education needs.
