Hello, I am Eden.

I am a beautiful, mature adult corn snake who absolutely loves attention from my human companions. I am very tame and enjoy being handled; I’d make a wonderful friend for a first-time snake owner because of my docile nature.

Corn snakes can live up to 20 years, so I’ll be around for quite some time! I can grow 3-4 feet in length, so I’ll need a large terrarium to hang out in at your place. Come meet me and speak to our adoptions staff to learn more about me.

Working Wise Dear Working Wise: I want a career where I can make a difference, but the only opportunity that I see in Alberta is oil. Are there any good career options for someone who wants to make the world a better place for everyone? Signed Big-picture Thinker

©iStockphoto.com/monkeybusinessimages

Dear Thinker:

Do you have a work-related question?

Send your questions to Working Wise, at charles.strachey@gov.ab.ca. Charles Strachey is a manager with Alberta Human Services. This column is provided for general information.

Yes, there is a wide variety of career options that allow you to contribute in a positive way whether it is at home or abroad – some just may not be as obvious as others.

Health care and the voluntary sectors are generally recognizable, but the fact is that most jobs benefit the greater world. Entrepreneurs create jobs for other people. Engineers design efficient buildings that keep us warm and safe. Environmental specialists address issues ranging from clean drinking water supply to oil and gas reclamation.

Narrowing the impact that you want to have on the world might help you narrow down your search.

For example, have you thought about helping other people improve their lives?

Social workers help to build stronger, healthier communities by helping people build better lives through counselling, training and social programs.

They help Albertans improve their employment, finances, marriages, personal relationships, and parenting skills.

Social workers also help Albertans overcome substance abuse, prepare for life changes, escape abusive relationships, overcome their disabilities, and stay out of trouble with the law.

They can work in schools, hospitals, employment centres, child-protection offices, correctional centres, or community agencies focused on specific challenges ranging from homelessness to poverty to domestic violence to welcoming immigrants.

The hiring outlook remains positive for Social workers. Alberta’s Occupational Demand and Supply outlook 2013 – 2023 predicts a two per cent shortage (200 total) of social workers in Alberta over the next decade. Wages ranged between $20 and $52 per hour in 2013 and averaged $40 per hour.

Social work is a demanding occupation, which requires you to be: mature, emotionally stable, enjoy working with other people, empathetic, non-judgmental, patient, sensitive to others’ beliefs, have a sense of social justice, have integrity and be a good communicator.

Social work is a regulated occupation. Social workers must have a diploma or degree from an approved social work program, 1,500 hours of practical experience, and be registered with the Alberta College of Social Workers.

If this sounds like an interesting career, you can learn more about it by searching the Occupational Info database at http://occinfo.alis.alberta.ca. The OccInfo database has profiles on more than 500 different occupations.

You can also learn more by visiting the Alberta College of Social Workers at http://acsw.ab.ca or attending one of the National Social Work Week events that are being held March 1-7, 2015. A list of events is posted at http://bit.ly/1yMDd8y.

Good luck!
