hi all -
i'm seriously considering leaving the computer/it world.
1. i just barely escaped another round of layoffs - the third or fourth so far.
2. i just found out the new primary app my company is promoting will be supported by techs in india.
3. the entire helpdesk here is being outsourced to canada and india
it just goes on and on ...
anyway, i'm thinking about getting into the medical business, but i'm not sure what area. being a nurse sounds appealing, but i wonder about slighly more technically oriented jobs (mri labs, etc..). what other types of entry level medial jobs are there?
anyway, i'm not even sure what the first step would be in something like this. how does one learn these skills? technical colleges? acredited courses of some sort? other? i certainly feel i'm intelligent enough to handle whatever is tossed at me ... well brain surgery may be out of the question, but you get my drift.
anyway, if anyone has any info, pass it on. or if you're already in the medical field, i'd like to hear your opinions and thoughts.
thx!
