Career change after a layoff, where to begin? - 10 months and counting

I want to move from accountant to something with more stability. There are 5 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I have a little time and a small budget for training. How did you start?

You likely have more transferable skills than you think. Write down what you did, not what the job title said.

I began with informational chats, then a short online course, then a related entry-level role. It took about 10 months.
