My sister has been in public education (K-12) for the last decade and looking to make a career change into corporate learning and development.

Looking for advice and leads to companies that may be willing to take a chance on career change folks. Her skills are absolutely transferrable. She’s great with people and would love to continue in a training or L&D role.

Any leads would be appreciated!

Not sure if you still need this, but a lot of people in my company are transitioning to L&D from untraditional roles. I would advise she create a work sample, learn how to use something like Captivate or Articulate Storyline (at least the basics so she can put it on her resume), and look at remote (work-from-home) Instructional Designer jobs. She can explain in her interview that she believes she has more experience and is looking to grow quickly.

Made the leap. She needs to build that network my friend. Additionally, what separate her from the thousands of other transitioning teachers? I don’t mean to be brash— honest question. Any chance you could help her with that? Also open to a DM

I suggest an eLearning certification as those skills are in high demand in corporate L&D.

I've become really jaded about consulting.

Does anyone who switched from consulting to product management have any recommendations of h helpful PM books, courses, or programs?
