How do you plan a career change?
Start from what you have, not from a course catalogue.
- 01
Pick the new role
Any role, in any field. You can keep your current role as a second path.
- 02
See what transfers
The skills your resume already shows that the new role asks for, named one by one.
- 03
Close the gaps that matter
Learning built for each missing skill, sized to the hours you have each week, in the order that moves your readiness most.
- 04
Apply when the scores say so
Jobs in the new field are scored out of 100 and move as you learn, so you can see when an application is worth sending.
What makes a career change work?
Start from what transfers
Experience in one field often covers part of the next. Seeing which part stops you learning what you already know.
Learn only what the role asks
Each roadmap is built from a gap the new role names, not from a general course.
Watch the new jobs move
Finish a roadmap and the jobs that ask for that skill rise by the amount it showed, once.
Practise the new interview
Mock interviews for roles in the new field, out loud, with a score out of 10.
Your experience still counts
Years in your current field, a licence or a language you speak count where the new role asks for them. Add one line of proof and the job counts it as met.
