Career change after a layoff, where to begin? - any advice?

My layoff made me rethink whether to stay in my field. I have a little time and a small budget for training.

Try a small project in the new field before committing. It told me a lot about whether I would enjoy it.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
