How audiologist pay ranges in Georgia

A good way to think about salary in Georgia is to look at the distribution rather than the headline average. Half of all audiologists in Georgia earn less than 142,300 GEL a year, and the other half earn more. That middle number is the median, and it is usually more useful than the average for answering "is my pay normal here".

Looking at the quartiles fills in the picture. A quarter of earners take home less than 97,760 GEL (the 25th percentile), and a quarter clear 180,300 GEL (the 75th percentile). The middle 50% of audiologists sit somewhere inside that band, which is where the typical reader of this page probably lives.

The very lowest reported salaries sit around 73,880 GEL. The highest stretch to 222,300 GEL, though only a small fraction of earners ever reach that level. If you are deciding whether your own offer or current pay is reasonable, work out which of those four bands you would fall into and use that as your reference point.

Audiologist pay by experience in Georgia

Years of experience is the single biggest lever on pay for an audiologist in Georgia, ahead of education and almost any other single factor. The longer you have been in the role, the more your employer can trust you to handle complexity, mentor others and act independently, all of which command higher pay. The chart below shows how the typical audiologist salary changes as you move through the career ladder.

  • 0-2 Years
    81,180 GEL
  • 2-5 Years
    +34% from previous
    109,000 GEL
  • 5-10 Years

    +7% from previous
    195,200 GEL
  • 20+ Years
    +8% from previous
    210,500 GEL

The single largest jump on the ladder is from 2 - 5 Years to 5 - 10 Years, where pay rises by about 40%. That is the point at which a audiologist typically goes from "competent in the role" to "the person other people in the team learn from", and the market pays well for that step.

Audiologist pay by education in Georgia

Education lifts pay across almost every role, but the size of the lift varies enormously. The biggest premiums show up in licensed professions like medicine, law and accounting, where extra years of formal study open up seniority that isn't available without the qualification. The smallest premiums show up in skilled trades and creative work, where practical experience often beats academic credentials.

As a rough cross-industry guide for Georgia: a post-secondary certificate or diploma adds around 17% over a high-school-only baseline. A bachelor's degree typically adds another 25% on top of that. A master's lifts pay a further 30%, and a PhD adds about 22% more in fields that value research-level qualifications. These are averages across many different professions, so the real number for your specific job could easily be twice as high or close to zero. The per-job pages below have the real numbers for individual roles.

Audiologist gender pay gap in Georgia

The gender pay gap is a stubborn feature of almost every labour market, and Georgia is no exception. Male audiologists in Georgia earn an average of 152,100 GEL a year, while female audiologists earn around 138,200 GEL. That works out to a 10% gap in favour of men, even when comparing people doing the same work.

A pay gap of this size has a real long-term cost. Over a typical thirty-year career it can add up to several years of pay, and it compounds through pensions, retirement contributions and bonus-linked stock. Some of the gap is explained by women being more likely to work part-time, take career breaks, or be steered toward lower-paying specialisations. Some of it is straightforward unequal pay for the same job, which is harder to defend.
