Ive been out of school awhile but want to change directions, and there are several health careers that interest me. Is it too late?
No, its certainly not too late. Many adults become career-changers, moving to new career paths because their interests have changed or they need new opportunities to get ahead in life. Use this manual to select some options, and contact the educational programs and professional associations listed to find out what you need to do to enter a program. You may need to take some preliminary courses, but the chances are that you could begin your new educational program without too much backtracking. Some educational programs have evening or weekend classes for people who want to go back to school while they work. Some even have day care programs for parents who come back to school.
