Don't have the time or money to get a bachelor's degree?
Don't fret.
There are plenty of high-paying jobs that require only a two-year associate degree, postsecondary nondegree certificate, or even just a high-school diploma — and a few that don't require a formal educational credential at all.
Business Insider decided to look at which jobs do not require a bachelor's degree or higher and are also high-paying. To do this, we used the latest educational data and salary figures from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Of the top 40 jobs on our list, each occupation had a median annual salary of at least $63,000 in May 2019, the latest year of available data.
Some occupations from the 40 highest-paying are part of the transportation sector. This includes railroad conductors and locomotive engineers. Other jobs also include technicians and repairers, such as avionics technicians and electrical power-line installers and repairers.
The following are the 40 highest-paying jobs where you don't need a four-year degree to pursue, along with their minimum educational requirement, work experience, and on-the-job training. We also included median annual salary and employment figures from May 2019, employment projections for 2018 to 2028, and their job description from BLS Occupational Outlook Handbook.
