Idaho Colleges and Universities: Browse Colleges & Technical Schools

Published: November, 2010

With a workforce of 738,000, Idaho offers a wide variety of career opportunities. State capital Boise is home to all three of Idaho's Fortune 500 companies:
  • Boise Cascade Holdings, a forest and paper products company
  • Micron Technology, seller of semiconductors and other electronic components
  • Washington Group Intl., an engineering and construction business

These large, profitable companies provide career variety across all of Idaho. The state's very low unemployment rate is due in part to a healthy system of job creation; June 2007 marked the 70th month in a row that Idaho's unemployment has come in under the national average.

Projected business growth in Idaho spans a number of different industries. The Spokesman Review reports Idaho's fastest-growing industries as:
  • Tourism
  • Construction
  • Retail trade
  • Agriculture
  • Administrative and support services

  • Casinos also draw visitors and income to Idaho. Casino cage managers in Idaho earn an average of $55,900, while card room managers earn $65,800 on average. While no degree program can guarantee promotion, career training programs in business administration and management can give applicants in any business-related field the upper hand over workers with less training and experience.
