onsider for a moment the humble smart phone. Just how many careers go into your iPhone or Blackberry? Surely more than just the engineers to design the phone and the software programmers to create the apps to power the phone. There are human resources people to hire those technical workers, sales and marketing reps to promote the devices, and website developers to educate consumers. The list goes on and on.
Camille Saltman, President of CONNECT recently was a participant in the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) America Meeting, founded by President Clinton to address economic recovery in the United States. CGI America brings together leaders in business, government, and civil society to generate and implement commitments to create jobs, stimulate economic growth, foster innovation, and support workforce development in the United States. CONNECT announced a commitment at the Summit to address the loss of manufacturing jobs in San Diego by providing workshops to educate San Diego businesses about the benefits of outsourcing locally and matchmaking programs that connect innovation companies and local manufacturers.

So if you were to bet your career on a local industry trend, where would you wager your time and money? An organization that is intensely interested in the answer is CONNECT, the San Diego nonprofit committed to accelerating the innovation economy. “When it comes to job creation in San Diego, the big winner is communications technology, which means careers around the Internet, wireless, wireless applications, media, software, and the convergence of some of those solutions,” says Camille Saltman, president of CONNECT.
I extension.ucsd.edu I (858) 534-3400
Her organization serves as a catalyst for the creation of innovative technology and life sciences products in San Diego County by linking inventors and entrepreneurs with the resources they need for success. CONNECT carefully tracks the regional technology trends. “Careers in communications technology have made a big jump after just a steady climb through the recession,” says Saltman. “As we see growth in communications technology and biotech, we also see growth in jobs related to those industries. The region has almost 140,000 high-tech jobs in total, and our economists project they generate about 225,000 indirect jobs. That is everything from website development to IT support, legal support, accounting, office design, and office furnishings.” The cybersecurity aspects of the communications technology industry is also a bad news/good news story for the local economy, says Saltman.

A Smart Bet

First the bad news: “We are way ahead of ourselves,” says Saltman. “We have leapt out and thrown all of this personal and financial information out there without really being able to protect ourselves.” Now the good news: local companies are working with leading experts and law enforcement to address the vulnerabilities. That means even more career possibilities in communications technology in the years ahead. CONNECT was originally founded as a part of UC San Diego Extension in 1985 during troubling times for the local economy. Back then traditional industries in the region were on the decline, the attraction of companies to the San Diego region was very difficult, and regional leaders were searching for a path to economic renewal and sustained growth. CONNECT was founded on the scene as innovative high-tech and life sciences companies such as IMED, IVAC, Linkabit, SAIC, Qualcomm, and Hybritech were quietly developing in the San Diego region, fueled in part by technology and scientists at research institutions on the Torrey Pines Mesa. “By leveraging the various assets within the region, CONNECT focuses its efforts on accelerating the commercialization of new technology and life sciences products,” says CONNECT cofounder and current board member Mary Walshok, Associate Vice Chancellor of Public Programs and Dean of Extension at UC San Diego and the author of an upcoming book on the history of innovation in the region for Stanford University Press. “While that mission has stayed relatively true since its initial creation, the organization and its program offerings have continued to evolve in response to the changes in the region’s economic climate and the demands for a globally competitive talent pool.”
Walshok recalls that at the time that UCSD CONNECT (its original name) was founded, UC San Diego was just beginning to mature as a research institution, and there were a small number of other research institutions in the region. Over the years as San Diego’s technology and life sciences clusters have matured, UC San Diego has continued to grow, as has the entire research base of the region. Today, San Diego has more than 80 research institutions; about two thirds are part of the UC San Diego system, and the rest include private research organizations and a number of other academic-based research institutions such as Salk, TSRI and Sanford Burnham. In 2005, to better serve the entire research community, CONNECT spun-out of UC San Diego Extension. As a result of spinning-out from UC San Diego, CONNECT has been able to broaden its mandate to include public advocacy work on behalf of its members through the trade organization. Today, CONNECT is focused on delivering the fundamental programs that the innovation community depends upon. At the same time the organization is creating new services to meet the needs of the evolving economic and policy landscape and the new clusters that are developing within the region. Challenges include attracting investment capital and engineering and experienced management talent. New clusters they are supporting include Biofluels, Clean Tech, and Sports Innovators. n
CONNECT, with an annual budget of around $3 million, is widely regarded as one of the world’s most successful organizations linking inventors and entrepreneurs with the resources they need for commercialization of innovative products. The program has been modeled in more than 50 regions around the world—most recently in New York City, Bogotá, Colombia, and Saudi Arabia.

HOT
Careers
W
hat constitutes a hot job for a college grad?
In a research study by UC San Diego Extension, that question was examined through an analysis of wage and employment information gathered by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics. Four weighted categories were used to determine the rankings: The number of jobs in the field now, the ten-year projected growth from 2010 to 2020, the median wage, and the work environment. The “work environment ”category sums up factors relevant to employee satisfaction. It includes such factors as workplace atmosphere, relative time pressures and on-the-job stress, responsibility for others’ health and safety, and the consequences of mistakes. Finally, a bridging parameter was added to account for the dilemma faced by so many college graduates struggling to find the right job in the wake of the recent recession: Is the job one for which a college grad can qualify with a minimal amount of continuing education? The data analysis revealed 18 major career sectors with strong employment potential. There is a clear pattern as to where employment opportunities are growing: ten of the highest demand jobs are in computer-related fields, five are in medical, and three—cost estimators, personal financial advisors, and management analysts— are occupations that process or adapt information generated by computers. For the full 2012 report released in June, go to extension.ucsd.edu/specialreports. Following is a synopsis of the top five jobs in the report:

I Fall 2012
SPECIAL REPORT at extension.ucsd.edu/specialreports
by Henry DeVries, Sundari Baru,and Josh Shapiro
1. Software Developers, Systems Software The hottest of the hot careers is software developers for systems software. Software developers are the creative minds behind computer programs. They set up the underlying systems that run the devices or control networks. People with different occupational titles develop the applications that permit specific tasks and still others write the programming code and test it. This field is growing at a rate of 32 percent and commands a median salary of $94,180. Successful applicants demonstrate strong programming skills and typically have a degree in computer science or mathematics.
2. Physical Therapists and Assistants Come 2020, gather all the physical therapists whose jobs did not exist in 2010 and they would overflow San Diego’s Qualcomm Stadium. There are expected to be 77,400 new job holders across the United States, greater than the stadium capacity. This occupational field is experiencing an incredible growth rate of 39 percent over ten years, from 198,600 employed in 2010 to 276,000 employed in 2020. The median salary is $76,310. The therapist assistant category is growing even faster at 46 percent, although in a smaller employment pool with 30,800 new job openings. An assistant performs routine tasks such as cleaning treatment areas, helping people to the site, and assisting patients with insurance forms. They also observe patients, assist with exercise therapy, and educate families on what to do after treatment. A prerequisite to becoming a therapist assistant is an associate’s degree and the median pay is $49,960.

3. Software Developers, Applications Chances are every college student has been a software applications customer many times over. Download a song, comparison shop, find directions to the weekend party, play a computer game, submit a job application online, or share a photo electronically—all these functions and widespread access to Internet distribution did not exist when they were born. Applications developers, similar to the number-one hot job of systems developers, have their own classification, which can be filled by people who have analytical skills (i.e.: a political science graduate) and also acquire programming skills in such things as Java or C++. Computer science and math grads are also obvious candidates. This is a very large field, 520,800 already employed, and getting larger at a ten-year clip of 28 percent, slightly less than the systems developers’ projected 32 percent increase. Their median pay is comparable at $87,790 a year.
4. Market Research Analysts/Data Miners Market research analysts and a proliferation of data mining occupational titles are in extremely high demand. These skills are relevant in many parts of the economy and the field leads all others in expected growth at 41 percent (116,800 positions) between 2010 and 2020. The median annual salary is $60,570. Companies rely on these analysts to study market conditions, form sales campaigns, establish customer satisfaction levels and even decide where to locate stores. Market research analysts help financial institutions decide whether to grant loans or credit cards.
Top 18
for College Grads and Returning Students
The following table is a look at the criteria used by the UC San Diego Extension research team to determine what constituted a “hot career” in today’s world for recent and mid-career college graduates.
5. Cost Estimators More and more companies are looking for people who are adept at assessing the real costs of business. For example, if a cost estimator for a construction company overestimates the expense of erecting a building, the firm bids too high and probably will not win the project. If a cost estimator underestimates, the firm probably wins the project but may lose money on materials and labor. Cost estimators are also critical to technology developers, manufacturing and defense industries. The median salary is $57,860 and expected growth in positions is 36 percent, an increase of 67,500 new positions by 2020.

These and related careers represent promising opportunities for college grads willing to augment their university degrees with additional training. Continuing education can rapidly bridge specific skill requirements without spending multiple years in costly graduate programs. The diverse range of certificate programs available through UC San Diego Extension are designed for just that purpose. From Accounting, Data Mining, Embedded Computer Engineering, Healthcare Information Technology to Biotechnology Project Management, UC San Diego Extension offers over 100 certificate programs and 600 courses every quarter to help graduates bridge the employment gap. n

The algorithm considered these factors: 1. Current rates of employment. A total of 25 points were possible for this category based on current levels of employment data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. 2. Projected growth for jobs in the field. A total of 25 points were possible based on projections from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. 3. Median wage for jobs in the field. A total of 25 points were possible based on data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. 4. Typical work environments in the field. A total of 25 points were possible for this composite of 10 descriptors from various secondary research sources designed to capture the attractiveness of the workplace environment for the various occupations. 5. Bridgeability factor. This was a simple “yes or no”, “in or out” decision based on whether a college graduate could bridge into this career with one or two years of study or reskilling. This is why excellent careers like registered nurse, medical scientist, veterinarian, optometrist, and pharmacist did not make this hot careers list.

ways
to pay for Continuing Education by Henry DeVries
H
ow to pay for continuing education is a troubling issue for many San Diegans who want to gain new job skills. A great deal of resources go toward training young people as they leave high school and pursue college or trade school education. Long before President Obama vowed that America will “have the highest proportion of college graduates in the world” by 2020, the desirability of going to college was firmly embedded in the American psyche. Parents put money aside, the federal and state governments provide financial aid, and generous individuals and companies fund scholarships. The percentage of students who go on to college or trade school within a year of high school climbed from 47 percent to 67 percent in the last 30 years, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. That translates to more than 18 million per year. Meanwhile, tuition and fees during that same period, adjusted for inflation, rose 439 percent, towering over increases in medical care, housing and food. Yet median family income only rose 147 percent during the same period. This has left many high school parents and college students wondering how they can maximize their return on this tremendous investment.
But what about those who have already been down that road and now need new skills? Here are eight ways to find help to pay the cost of continuing education: As an employee benefit, many employers will reimburse all or part of your tuition j Employers. at an accredited school. Employers appreciate employees who are willing to go the extra mile by taking courses at night or on weekends. At UC San Diego Extension, about 45 percent of students in certificate programs receive all or part of their fees paid by their employer.
A grant is money that does not have to be repaid. Typically these are offered by the k Grants. federal government, state agencies, and colleges. Study. If you can work your way through school, work study programs give you money for l Work working while going to school. For students with promise and potential, an increasing number of merit m Scholarships. scholarships are now being offered. For example, at UC San Diego Extension scholarships are offered to University of California alumni for up to $5,500.

Money is available to retrain out of work San Diegans. o Workforce The Workforce Partnership has specific eligibility requirements to receive this funding. To determine if you qualify, visit one of the six One-Stop Career Centers in San Diego (workforce.org).
spouse. If you are the spouse of a military person, you are eligible for free financial aid p Military through the Military Spouse Department of Defense financial aid program. Loans. A loan is borrowed money that must be repaid. Various local banks, credit q Student unions, and lending institutions now offer private loan programs specifically for continuing
education. The hope is you will be able to borrow money at a lower interest rate than you can with say your credit card. The difference in interest rates is in fact financial aid. Check with your local financial institution to see what types of programs may be available.
A final piece of advice from financial aid advisors: If you don’t request, you don’t receive. Find the training you want and then ask for the various ways to pay for continuing education. n 6

What our students think about online classes
“
I learned so much and it was nice to hear the different view points from so many people who live all over the world. We had people in the on-line class that live in Peru and Paris. It was fascinating how one subject, such as recycling, is done, or not done, in other countries and even the difference between Northern California and Southern California. You just can’t get that kind of experience when everyone lives in the same area and attends class.” “I enjoyed flipping back through audio visual lectures to review certain points at my leisure.” “The discussion board offered so much more than in most online classes. The thought provoking topics and the great class participation promoted the ability to apply the lessons learned into our daily work and life.” “I like that I could interact with the whole class without actually being on campus at UCSD.” “The instructor’s audio lessons were outstanding. Her personal experiences along with her professional outlook made each audio lesson very inspiring.” “By presenting audio/visual lectures, interactive discussions with classmates and the instructor, activities and readings, there was plenty of variety to keep us all motivated.”

MASTER’S DEGREE PROGRAMS What are UCSD Master’s Degrees?
Do I need to take the GRE/GMAT?
The following UCSD Master’s Degrees, also known as Master of Advanced Studies (MAS) programs are fully accredited, graduate degrees for professionals, conferred by the University of California, San Diego and administered through Extension. Under a statewide project of the University of California, the MAS degree credential was introduced in January, 2001. Self-funded MAS degree programs are typically tailored to the lifestyle and level of experience of mid-career professionals and may be taken on a full or part-time basis.
No, the GRE/GMAT is not required for admission to these programs.
Are there admission requirements?
Is there financial aid?
Yes, like any other graduate program, there are specific admission requirements for each degree program. This may be a combination of a related undergraduate degree, specified minimum GPA, relevant working experience, resume, letters of recommendation, and a statement of purpose with the application. See individual program websites for details.
Students may secure funding opportunities through a number of outside agencies, both government and non-government organizations and foundations. Commercial bank loans are available for students. There are many opportunities for scholarships and fellowships, but interested students must investigate and apply for these on their own. See individual program websites for details.
“I have to admit that I wasn’t sure I could fit going back to school into my life - but I enjoyed the online class so much that it was easy to make the time to study. I thought the coursework was excellent in terms of the amount of information provided and the hands-on practical work expected of us, and I really appreciated the sense of support that the instructor conveyed. I signed up for the class hoping to eventually earn a certificate so that I can freelance to supplement my future pension, but was delighted to find out I can put it to good use right now on the job. It was money and time well-spent.

“
When I graduated from UCSD, I worked for a small start-up and gradually moved my way up to Development Manager. In this role I managed the development staff, as well as all of the company’s projects, but I was struggling to put together timelines and manage costs. A friend told me about the Project Management Certificate at UCSD Extension, and her plans to pursue PMP credentials. Hoping to learn project management tools and techniques for my job, I joined the certificate program. The classes taught me the foundations of project management, and best of all, worked within my schedule. They provided me with the knowledge base and required coursework needed to earn my PMP credential. With my certificate, I landed a Project Manager position at a local biotech company, where there were great career growth opportunities for me. My new company supported my pursuit of the PMP credential, and now I’m the PMO Systems Manager. The project management tools and techniques I learned were brought to life.

& SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
“
When the recession hit and I found myself downsized from a formidable job in event management, I began to reassess what was important to me in a career. I wanted to find meaning and a sense of giving back to the community. Once I started researching grant writing and fundraising opportunities it became clear that UCSD Extension’s certificate program in Fundraising and Development was the way to go.
Become a Nonprofit Leader in Your Community For more than 10 years, the Professional Certificate in Fundraising and Development has educated hundreds of San Diegans and nonprofit professionals to take on increasingly vital leadership roles in the community. Get involved in one of these inspiring and rewarding classes. This fall, check out “Financial Management for Nonprofits,” “Capital Campaigns,” and “Leading & Managing the Development Function.” For details, call (858) 534-8136, email rtrevino@ucsd.edu or visit extension.ucsd.edu/fundraising
Measuring Environmental Impact This fall, “Environmental Economics: Evaluating the Impact of Sustainable Practices” will be held at San Diego Gas & Electric’s state-of-the-art sustainability center in Kearny Mesa, allowing students hands-on access to the latest green technologies. Thanks to SDGE’s the class will be offered at a discounted rate. For details, call (858) 534-8139, email fodonnel@ucsd.edu or visit extension.ucsd.edu/sustainable
Transformational Leadership Exceptional leaders know how to integrate power, collaboration and influence to effectively lead their organizations. In this nine week course, you’ll explore various leadership styles, gain an understanding of the role of power and politics in influencing others, and identify new methods of decision making. For details, call (858) 534-8136, email rtrevino@ucsd.edu or visit extension.ucsd.edu/leadership Environment & Sustainability Environmental Economics: Evaluating the Impact of Sustainable Practices Environmental Sustainability Assessment Practicum Innovation and Integration of Sustainable Practices Introduction to Sustainability* Renewable Energy Resources
Fundraising & Philanthropy Annual Giving: Individual, Corporate & Foundation Capital Campaigns Directed Studies in Fundraising & Development Financial Management for Nonprofit Organizations Leading and Managing the Development Function Major Gifts Marketing for Nonprofit Organizations Overview of Fundraising & Development Processes
While attending courses I connected with like-minded professionals and had insightful conversations with instructors who had years of handson development experience. Through networking I landed volunteer opportunities to gain relevant work experience in the fundraising field. The skills I garnered from the Fundraising and Development program have proved invaluable in application. In the Grant Writing course I learned what it takes to research, write, and follow through with successful grant proposals, and my first grant proposal was approved for funding. Knowledge is power—as well as courage and success. Not only did I learn about a new career field to pursue, I grew as an individual as well.
