Will I be able to get a speech therapy job in Florida?

Question

My husband and I will be moving to Florida in the near future. (Not sure what part of Florida) I have been a speech therapist in a school district in NY for 30 years. Will I be able to find a similar job in Florida?

Answer 1

I'm sure they have speech therapists in Florida... Your ability to get a job will depend on your skills, your certification/liscense, and your willingness to take a pay cut.  If you need or want to make the same money that you're making in NY after 30 years on the job, you'll be too expensive for a school district to hire.

Answer 2

I am a teacher in the system and let me tell you, if I had the energy to go back to school for a second Masters it would be in speech therapy. The school district of Florida wants you. They are in great demand as far as the educational sector. Please explore.
