Occupational Therapist Job Outlook

Family :: Careers No Comments »

The future looks bright as far job opportunities are concerned for occupational therapists (OTs). More and more job openings are reported every day and the Internet is full of job offers for OTs. Compared to the average for all occupations, occupational therapist employment is growing much faster and it’s expected to increase 23 percent between 2006 and 2016. The main reason for this expectation is in the fact that the number of elderly population in America is increasing all the time, which drives an increase in the demand for occupational therapists. People in the age of 75 and older is a group that suffers from high incidences of disabling conditions, while the baby-boom generation’s movement into middle age is another cause for the increased number of incidence of heart attacks and strokes.

Online Interior Design Schools, Or Not?

Family :: Careers No Comments »

My daughter is interested in becoming an interior designer or decorator. She isn’t sure which one but knows there is a difference.

So, we’ve been looking into what is available and have looked at some online interior design schools too.

I wasn’t sure that doing an on line course would be easy without some hands on help and after reading some forums, it seems that I’m not completely wrong in that thought.

Our local college offers a a basic course which will get her an associates degree which she could take on to get an internship with a design firm or designer.

We are still deciding which is the best way to go.

You can expect to earn around $12 to $21 per hour as a dental assistant salary depending on your experience and the location of your dentist's clinic. The median annual salary for a dental assistant is $33,324 per annum working 3-4 days a week, but you can earn a lot more by working for more than one dentist. Depending on your experience, you can also negotiate for paid vacations or holidays, pension plans, free dental care and paid sick leave. If your hands prove to be steady and you provide reliable service for your dentist then you can expect to get promoted quite fast.
