Instructional Design / Learning jobs for former SLPs

3 openings right now, 1 of them remote, at 2 companies that hire speech-language pathologists into non-clinical work.

Typical range
$70,000–$100,000
Typical timeline
6–12 months

Ranges and timelines come from documented SLP transitions, not estimates.

Why SLPs land here

Therapy goals are learning objectives. Session sequencing is curriculum scaffolding. Progress monitoring is evaluation. You already think like an instructional designer.

Where people get in

A portfolio of 3–5 samples built in Articulate Storyline or Rise, each with a short process write-up. Spec work counts.

Worth knowing

Skip the $3,000 certificate. Hiring managers want the portfolio. Also be aware this field got more competitive with the influx of transitioning teachers.

Your first move this week

Take one training you've already delivered to colleagues and rebuild it as a single Rise module. That's sample number one.
