Abstract	This report presents a process for identifying emerging and significantly evolving occupations within key Texas industries. It explains findings of a research project that provided a current information resource to help job seekers make informed career and training choices. Chapter 1 is an introduction. Chapter 2 examines the projected mismatch between work force capabilities and needs and the reality of workplace change. Chapter 3 presents results of an industry analysis with an explanation of the variables used to determine employment growth and job quality potential. It examines two of the most significant driving forces behind industry change--consumer demand and technological innovation. Chapters 4-10 examine each targeted industry or industrial grouping in detail, discussing specific technological innovations and specialty areas. Each chapter opens with a brief, one-page summary highlighting the chapter's most important findings and lists the emerging and evolving occupations related to that industry or industry grouping. The industries and industrial groupings are as follows: electronics, electrical equipment, and semiconductors; financial services; professional services; telecommunications; transportation; utilities; and wholesale trade--durable goods. Chapter 11 presents conclusions and recommendations. (Contains 76 references. Appendixes include methodology; step-by-step replication manual; complete industry analysis listing; and detailed results from analyses of Texas and Florida follow-up.) (YLB)
