SLP, Ready for a different career choice?

Are you a speech-language pathologist who is burned out, ready to retire or wanting a second job (full-time or part-time)? How does your experience and degree translate into something else? You want to do something different, but you don't want to go back to school. What other choices do you have?

Author Katie Schwartz, CCC-SLP, reports there are a surprising number of career possibilities, from publishing to government. Her book, Alternative Career Options for SLPs (www.BusinessSpeechImprovement.com/ebooks), offers detailed descriptions of 18 choices, how people started in them, and their advantages and disadvantages. It includes a self-assessment questionnaire to help readers consider possible paths they may take.

Physical and occupational therapists and special education teachers, may also be interested in some of the choices presented, which would apply to those fields as well.
