But the report also shows steep declines in legacy roles like network support and telecom installers as automation and new technology reshape the workforce. Software development remains strong, with 17–18% growth in developer and web/digital roles.
Highlights include:

Women in manufacturing pathway launched by Fresh Start & Benchmark

Cargill partners with ASU to explore bio-based chip manufacturing materials
