How Teachers Can Break into Corporate America
A teacher who successfully transitioned out of education shares his advice.
Matt Sustaita made a successful transition to corporate America after six years of teaching. He broke into instructional design and worked his way up to Senior Sales Enablement Content Strategist. I am happy to see another teacher successfully escape teaching. It’s also great to see climb that ladder. It’s unfortunate that, as a teacher, the only avenue for advancement is administration which is locked behind expensive and time consuming hurdles.
In his LinkedIn article he talks about strategies for using the site to find a job as well as taking advantage of tools to grow your skills and qualify for a better job. Congratulations to him and a big thanks for sharing his story and advice.
