Son wants to go into Automotive Tech

In my opinion, the IT sector is the way to go. I am a (UPS) "uninterrupted power supply" electronics tech for Vertiv / Liebert. Formerly Emerson Network Power. We were sold due to greedy shareholders. Anyway, i am grossing $100K-$110 a year Working from my home. The US techs operate much differently that we do here in Canada, at the same time there is never a shortage of work. I can say in the past 11 years i have never had a threat of a job lay off.

I am thinking the Automotive industry will be changing severely in the next 5-10 years.

My Son is starting 4 years of environmental engineering, not sure where that will take him?
