azure Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Hi all! What are the career options with a CSD bachelor degree if someone chooses not to pursue graduate school? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aelwood14 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 SLP-A if you can find a state that does have SLP-A's. I have worked in Montana as one for the past 5 years. Behavioral Specialist Child Development Preschool However, all of this is going to depend on where you live and the qualification in your state. If you are considering going to grad school, I would look for an SLP-A position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AB121212 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 (edited) In addition to the above, newborn hearing screener (I know this is SLP but you are probably at least familiar with audiology too!), and research assistant for otolaryngology and other medical research labs/hospitals. If you have any office/administrative experience, you could work in an ENT/SLP/audiology practice or department.

I have heard of SLP-A's only getting paid at the para-educator level. It's going to depend on the state and school district budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the jobs listed above you can't really make a living out of. If you don't do grad school, I would recommend choosing an alternative career that pays higher because with just a CSD bachelors it is hard to make a living (at least where I am from) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started out at a beginning teacher rate, 0 years experience. Hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeeLee Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 If you are into audiology, being a hearing aid dispenser is an option (depending on your location.) In CA, you need to obtain licensure through an exam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
