Medical technology is a burgeoning career field.
The U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts a 24-percent increase in the health care and social services sector during the coming 8 years. This industry--which includes hospitals, nursing care facilities and individual and family service--is expected to gain 4 million new jobs. This growth in employment will be driven by longer life expectancy and aging population. Many schools in Colorado will help you tool yourself to work in medical technician positions.
