Global as well as local markets will always need skilled individuals who can represent the organization to the external and internal world. With rapidly changing communication technologies and other factors that influence social, economical and cultural life, developing and maintaining communication strategies have turned 360 degree in the recent years. There is always demand for experienced people having hands on knowledge on marketing, communication and marketing. A report from The U.S. Department of Labor states that demand for communication professionals will be high across all industries in 21st century. With the risk of overstating, I may also hint that communication as a specialized branch can be regarded as one of today’s fastest growing fields. Here, I would like to have your attention towards a survey being carried out by Occupation Outlook Quarterly. It has said that there will be an anticipated 19-26 percent increased in demand by the year 2010 for individuals in communication occupations.
