From SWG Wiki

There are a total of nine primary professions a player may choose from. There are seven combat professions, four crafting professions and one entertainer profession. In addition to a main profession, there are four auxillary professions that characters of any profession may pursue: Pilot, Politician, Beast Master and Chronicle Master.

Characters may change primary professions (and expertise) later in their career by visiting a profession counselor. The category of each profession affects the level the character becomes in the new profession. The first main profession change is free, however subsequent changes increase the fee up to 25 million. Every month, this "change counter" is decreased by one. So practically, a character can change his profession for free once a month.
