Highest Paying Work-at-Home Jobs that Don't Require a Degree
How in a Term or Two, You Can Be One Your Way to a Great, Work-at-home Career
Translation - for those that took a language in high school or college, translation careers are one of the best paying careers offered to home workers. While your language skills may need refreshed, there are many colleges who offer language classes and will let you audit a class for a reduced fee. In addition, many offer continuing education classes where you can brush-up on your language skills online. MIT Open Courseware offers free lessons that were developed by MIT instructors in all academic disciplines. Textbooks used in the actual class are listed, so you can purchase one and follow along with each lesson.
Medical/Legal Transcription - this field is open for individuals who can type fast and lean terminology and formatting, in classes and programs that usually last two terms. While there are many online schools that offer medical terminology, a community college generally costs less, and instructors are in the classroom to provide immediate feedback. The same can be said with legal transcription. Stenographers and scopists are two high paying careers that can be completed in about six months. While these jobs can be performed at home, it is important to note that employees usually have to provide their own equipment, which in addition to a computer and internet can cost a few hundred dollars.
Editors/Proofreaders - these careers are perfect for people who are great with details. Should you choose the transcription route, with experience and certification, editors are needed to proofread transcriptionists' dictation. These jobs pay higher than general transcription jobs, and usually require three year's experience. If you are looking to get into proofreading and editing other types of documents, many community colleges offer editing classes that last two terms and are offered online. Should you choose this route, it is important to save your class assignments and use them to present to potential employers as samples of your editing abilities.
While there are many more careers out there that can be completed in a home office environment, these are just a few that offer employees longevity, stability, and a sense of accomplishment. In addition, all require some education which is great for networking and potential job leads. With proper research and education, a work-at-home career can pay and employee more than their previous brick and mortar job.

The translator jobs look great!
Good advice! I would have to say that some of these jobs those require an education. For instance I am a translator and when I worked as a project manager for a large company that did multilingual media production, we always had the translators have at least a BA... Our transcribers were to do a test run with there work but most had experience of over ten years and had taken courses to show that they were qualified in the terms.
where/how could i possibly get a job as an editor of what medical transcriptionists have written?
I have been an acute care medical transcriptionist for 30 years, working at home for about 6 or 7 years now, and just because the ads on TV say that you can make $40,000 a year working from home that is not necessarily true. What they do not tell you is that the majority of the transcription companies pay by the amount of work you are able to produce, usually by a 65-character line, not by the hour, and that the majority of the larger hospitals that turn to transcription services for help with overflow work or outsource all of their work, have huge numbers of foreign doctors with very, very bad accents. They also don't tell you that doctors in general would rather take a beating than dictate charts. So, the majority of the doctors are going to talk as fast as they can, and eat, burp, cough, and make any number of ungodly noises you can think of, talk to other people, along with mumbling and now that they have cell phones they are dictating while driving down the interstate in their
Definitely good ideas for people that want to work at home.
Good job. I think you covered the better paying jobs working at home.
