　　A degree can be a valuable virtue for increasing your income. However, the job market for the highest paying jobs is also extremely competitive. If you are a new member into those job markets, without job experience to match your education, a degree will not help you get a job. Fortunately, the majority of job openings in 2017 do not require a degree. This includes many of the most reliable employment opportunities in the fastest growing fields.

　　Degrees are not required to work as a personal care assistant or home health assistant, both among the fastest growing occupations in the US today. As the US baby boomer generation grows steadily older, this trend is certain to continue.

　　For the same reason, many other non­degree health care careers in various health care specialties are also promising in the future. Physical and occupational therapist assistants are in constant demand, as audiologists and dental hygienists(牙科保健员). Medical technology experts, such as diagnostic medical sonographers, can often find work with only minimal, specialized college training. As a result, the need for medical secretaries has never been higher. A skilled and experienced medical secretary can expect to make an average of $ 30,530 annually.

　　The collapse of the US housing market hit the construction industry very hard. However, the need for skilled trade workers is as high as ever. Glaziers(装玻璃的工人)，brick and stonemasons can all expect to enter secure, high­paying jobs after passing all industry exams. In fact, an apprenticeship in nearly any of the skilled trades is likely to pay off.
