I have been thinking about a change in career, well, ever since I fell into my current one. I never really planned my career as I was always thinking about other things like going travelling, then paying off debts, then moving out of my parents' house, then buying my own home, then getting married, etc., etc. Anyway, I'd always temped in offices to save up money in the short term and when it came to actually getting a permanent job, the only thing I had any experience in was office work. A few years down the line, I have a reasonably paid job in marketing but I don't enjoy it and, as I'm on mat leave at the mo, it has given me time to think about what I'd really like to do.
I'd like to retrain to become a speech and language therapist. I've already done some research into it but am trying to get as much knowledge as possible as to the various routes. I do have an English Language A level but none of my others are useful and my degree was in History is totally irrelevant. Also, it is a fair few years since I did my A levels so could do with freshening up my formal qualifications. I will need to retrain and do a specific degree but I need some relevant experience / qualifications to actually get onto the course. Are there any SLTs out there who could give me any advice?
