Abstract:
More than ever, our field is in dire straights. Between 2009 and 2011, job loss almost tripled (AMTA Sourcebooks 2010 and 2012). Facilities are cutting their budgets, and healthcare reform doesn’t look promising, and many MTs cannot make ends meet.
On the other hand, some music therapists are hitting all-time high revenue records, hiring new professionals, and expanding fast. There are music therapists who land full-time dream jobs with benefits.
What’s the difference between the two? And how can YOU jump on the growth train?
In this workshop, you will learn 4 steps to getting paid what you’re worth, even when the economy is bad.
Learner Objectives:
1. Participants will be able to identify at least two areas for professional growth and at least one professional goal (CBMT Scope of Practice: IV. A. 1.)
2. Participants will be able to identify at least two ways to scale work for additional revenues (CBMT Scope of Practice: IV. B. 13.)
