Career change after a layoff, where to begin? - 21 weeks in

After 8 years as a production planner I am thinking about moving into a different field. I do not usually post, so bear with me. I have a little time and a small budget for training. Did you take a pay cut?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 9 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

I took a small pay cut for a year, and it was worth it for the growth afterwards.
