Data Sources and Calculations Educational Program Data The Taxonomy of Programs (TOP) is a standardized system used at the state level to classify programs and courses that are intended to achieve the same outcome at different colleges throughout the state. The TOP code assigned to Marketing and Distribution is 59.. The Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) is a standardized coding system used at the federal level to facilitate accurate tracking, assessment, and reporting of fields of study and program completion at educational institutions throughout the country. The CIP code assigned to Sales, Distribution, and Marketing Operations, General is All educational program data in this report are based on these TOP and CIP codes.

Educational Program to Occupation Crosswalk The TOP-CIP-SOC Crosswalk (Employment Development Department, 27) was used in this report to map California Community College-specific Taxonomy of Program (TOP) codes to federal Classification of Instructional Program (CIP) and Standard Occupational Classifications (SOC) codes. This crosswalk allows the user to estimate labor market demand for California Community College program completers using SOC based projections from the Labor Market Information Division. Industry Data The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is used by federal statistical agencies to classify business establishments for the purpose of conducting and reporting research on the U.S. business economy. Using the Standard Occupational Classification codes listed above, associated NAICS industries were identified.

Annual Openings: Annual openings are calculated by adding the number of new jobs to the number of replacement jobs, divided by the number of years in the projection period. Projections: Projections of employment are calculated by the Employment Development Department and are based on a mathematical formula that includes historical employment and economic indicators along with national, state, and local trends. Occupation: Jobs are grouped into occupations using the federal Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) system. Industry: Occupations are grouped into industries using the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). Wages: Hourly wages are reported in percentiles and averages.

4 Background Information Marketing and Distribution There are many job opportunities for an individual majoring in Marketing, the nature of which depend upon the type of certificate or degree earned. An undergraduate certificate in Marketing, for example, is typically designed to provide students with a broad overview of marketing communication, sales, research, Internet strategy, and global marketing. These programs generally equip completers with an understanding of the importance of selling and marketing to enhance their qualifications for supporting roles in the marketing field. 1 An associate s degree in Marketing, on the other hand, teaches the fundamentals of business and economic theory. Individuals with a Marketing associate s degree may enter the workforce in fields such as public relations, marketing, advertising, and sales. 2 The following five occupational categories were identified by the Employment Development Department as being available to individuals with an undergraduate certificate or associate s degree in Marketing. Purchasing Agents, Except Wholesale, Retail, and Farm Products Purchasing Agents buy goods and services for use by a company or organization. They must consider price, quality, availability, and technical support when choosing suppliers and merchandise. Retail Salespersons Retail Salespersons primary task is to get customers interested in buying a product by describing and showing the merchandise to them. Some salespersons will make out sales checks, take cash and credit card payments, and give change and receipts. They may also assist with ordering merchandise, stocking shelves or racks, marking price tags, taking inventory and/or preparing displays. Sales Representatives, Except Technical Sales Representatives sell products for wholesalers or manufacturers to businesses or groups of individuals. They must possess extensive knowledge of the merchandise they are selling so that they can field questions from consumers and communicate the advantages of their products over those of the competition.

Telemarketers Telemarketers contact businesses or private individuals by telephone and deliver prepared sales talks to persuade potential customers to buy a product or make a donation.

5 Regional Job Outlook Projected Job Outlook by Region The table below displays 26 employment estimates and 216 projections for the five occupational groups associated with Marketing and Distribution. The demand for Retail Salespersons will be very large due to both new and replacement job openings. There is also an extremely high demand for Sales Representatives, Except Technical, especially in Los Angeles. According to the Employment Development Department, the demand for Purchasing Agents will be limited by such industry changes as continually improving software and the growing number of purchases being made electronically through the Internet. Similarly, Wholesale and Retail Buyers, Except Farm Products can expect to see few openings due to consolidation of buying departments resulting from mergers and acquisitions Telemarketing jobs will not produce new job openings, but positions will continue to open due to anticipated replacements from retirement and/or turnover.
