About the NC Textile Career Map
We partnered with workforce and data experts to identify high-wage, high-demand jobs in North Carolina’s textile industry using labor market data and local insights. The NC Textile Career Map highlights some of the most exciting jobs in the textile industry today, the skills required for the job, and the education opportunities in North Carolina to get you there.
The map was developed by the Textile Innovation Engine in collaboration with Julius Education.

What if I don’t see my job on the Textile Career Map?
As you review the map, it’s possible you don’t see your job listed. That’s because the map shows a sample of the industry’s high growth, high-demand, high wage jobs, and unfortunately, we couldn’t fit every job in the industry on the map! It’s also possible that your job is on the map, but perhaps under a slightly different name, so click around!
