Speech-Language Pathologists

Significant Points

• About half work in educational services, and most others were employed by health care and social assistance facilities.
• A master's degree in speech-language pathology is the standard credential required for licensing in most States.
• Employment is expected to grow because the expanding population in older age groups is prone to medical conditions that result in speech, language, and swallowing problems.
• Excellent job opportunities are expected.
