Career change after a layoff, where to begin? - first time posting

After 9 years as an event coordinator I am thinking about moving into a different field. I have a little time and a small budget for training. Has anyone made a similar move?

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

I began with informational chats, then a short online course, then a related entry-level role. It took about 13 months.
