I would like suggestions for resources on non-Ph.D. careers in
psychology. My husband is interested in the field but does not want to
pursue a full Ph.D. Areas such as guidance and human development are
of interest to him.  I?ll give an additional $10 in tip once I receive
an answer.

Hello clownrunner-ga,

There are lots of resources for people interested in psychology
careers. I?ve included a wide collection of links that will lead you
to the many options possible. Sometimes careers in guidance and human
development are referred to as ?careers in the helping professions? if
you want to do some more research on your own.

Best wishes for your husband?s career.
