SACRAMENTO, CA — San Joaquin Valley College (SJVC) is highlighting recently published workforce data related to human resources and administrative occupations, as reported by national labor market sources. Recent analyses from employment research organizations, including Robert Half, reference continued hiring activity across a range of HR, customer service, and administrative support roles in multiple industries. These reports reflect national labor observations and do not account for individual employment outcomes or regional labor market variation.
The State of California identifies specific Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) categories that are considered in-field for graduates of SJVC’s Human Resources Administration program for the purpose of reporting graduate employment outcomes. These categories include Human Resources Specialists, Administrative Services Managers, Customer Service Representatives, Executive Assistants, Office Clerks, Bookkeeping and Accounting Clerks, and General and Operations Managers. Occupational information for these roles is published by the U.S. Department of Labor using SOC classifications.
Workforce publications commonly reference factors influencing HR and administrative staffing patterns, including changes in workplace technology, evolving recruitment and onboarding processes, and the increased use of digital systems to support employee and organizational operations. These reports describe how administrative and HR functions continue to exist across a wide range of organizational settings and industries.
SJVC’s Human Resources Administration program is designed to provide instruction in foundational concepts related to human resources, administrative procedures, communication, and business office practices. The program curriculum aligns with educational objectives established for the field and supports student learning across a variety of organizational functions. “My mission is to empower every student to turn their skills into opportunities, their training into confidence, and their education into a future they can be proud of,” said Rachel Bowne, Campus Director at San Joaquin Valley College.
Students enrolled in the program have shared reflections on their educational experience. “I knew I had a higher calling and could assist people in a higher way. Human Resources was a really good direction for me,” said Tierra W., a 2021 Human Resources Administration graduate. “I found SJVC online and saw that they offered an online schedule that met my needs.”
