Professional Sociological Associations and Careers for Sociology Majors

E‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‍‍‍‌‌‌‌‍ach of you will review and report on the American Sociological Association, another professional association, and a sociology-related career. In terms of the association and career, it is more interesting if you each choose a different association and career, so please note which associations and careers have already been reported on before submitting your post. You can see a short list of professional sociological associations here (https://socanth.tcnj.edu/) or you can do a search on Google. In addition to the American Sociological Association (ASA), you will need to pick one more professional sociological association to write about as well. Also describe some of the subfields in Sociology. You want to share what you learned about both Associations and complete the following steps: 

1. Choose and identify one of the sociology-related careers below.

2. Utilizing the most current government data available, determine and describe the distribution for your occupation based on at least one socio-demographic characteristic (e.g.. a‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‍‍‍‌‌‌‌‍ge, race/ethnicity, gender, sexuality, SES). In order to do this, you will need to access the Statistical Abstract of the United States (https://www.census.gov/library/publications/2011/compendia/statab/131ed/labor-force-employment-earnings.html) What proportion of the occupation is women? Men?

3. For your chosen occupation, determine the difference in median weekly earnings between people based on your previously chosen socio-demographic characteristic (i.e. women and men who are full-time wage and 

salary workers.) 4. Summarize the job responsibilities and career outlook for your chosen occupation. Is this in line with what you expected to find? Why, why not? How will this fit into your current life and experience? List of Occupations: (SOCIAL SERVICES)
