Why Seven?
While there are many pathways for success, we care about dedicating efforts and focus to what works for our region. For South Central Kentucky, data on growth and demand pointed to seven keys areas: Construction; Healthcare; Hospitality; Manufacturing; Professional Services; Public Services; and Transportation, Distribution, and Logistics.
Over the next ten years, these sectors are predicted to be the highest for potential growth in employment. To better represent each sector and the opportunities available, we identified the top ten in-demand positions and the average wages associated.
A 1-day summit with members of the local business community served to reinforce our data and to aid in the creation of our sector alliances, which will help drive the development of talent in the coming years.
