Quit and enter a 6–8 week accelerated program paid by the hiring employer. Some pay $18–22/hr during training.

Option C: Government-funded (WIOA)

If you've been laid off, federal workforce funds cover training costs up to $10K. You may qualify for income support.

HVAC technician working on air conditioning unit

"I was a financial analyst watching my team get cut in half. I used GuildShift to plan my exit 6 months before my role was eliminated. By the time the layoff came, I already had my HVAC certification and a job offer at $62K. My former colleagues are still looking for analyst positions."

Plan now. Move on your terms.
Not theirs.
