Everything computers:  From web design, gaming and animation all the way to IT, the nerds of the world are still going strong.

Health services: Aging boomers are giving this industry one sweet smelling bloom. Talk about flower power.

Mental dental: The teeth have it — dentists and their assistants will be smiling wide for the next few years to come.

Drug dealers (a.k.a. pharmacists): Zero per cent unemployment rate. ’Nuff said.

University professors: New focus on skills and education make the choice to become an Ivory Tower big-wig simply academic.
