For Individuals in Transition

Don't justre-employ,self-employ.

Whether you were laid off, are planning retirement, or are just ready for something different, VentureOff gives you a structured, supported path to your next chapter — including whether that chapter involves starting a business.

Who This Is For

VentureOff is your soft landing after employment disruption.

  • You were laid off or restructured out

    The job you had is gone and you're not sure the next one is worth chasing. Maybe you've had a business idea sitting in the back of your mind or are just curious what entrepreneurship is all about. Now might be the time to find out if it's real.

  • You're retiring and not quite done

    You've spent decades building expertise. The idea of stepping away entirely doesn't sit right, but you also don't want another full-time role. There might be a business in what you already know.

  • You're ready for something different

    You're leaving on your own terms and you want to do something meaningful with what comes next. You just need help figuring out what that is and whether you're actually ready to build it.

FAQs

The questions people ask first.

  • Do I need to already have a business idea to start?

    Not at all. The VentureOff Entrepreneurship Curriculum is specifically designed for people who are curious about business ownership but uncertain if that's the next best thing.

  • Can I do VentureOff while I'm also job searching?

    Absolutely. The Career Studio is built for exactly that. Many participants explore entrepreneurship through the Entrepreneurship Curriculum while simultaneously using the Career Studio to manage their job search. Both paths are open to you at the same time.

  • What if I go through the program and decide not to start a business?

    That's a completely valid outcome. The goal of VentureOff is an informed decision, not a forced launch. Many participants complete the program and reach a confident, documented "no-go" conclusion. That clarity has real value too. Many professionals also keep their new day jobs and start a side hustle as a result — you don't have to go all-in.

  • How long does the program take?

    The Entrepreneurship Curriculum is five self-paced modules. Most participants complete it in 6–8 weeks, though you can move faster or slower based on your schedule or interest.

  • Is this covered by my employer?

    It may be. Many organizations offer VentureOff as part of their severance, outplacement, or retirement benefit. Check with your HR or benefits team, or reach out to us and we can help you find out.

  • What is Scout and how does it work?

    Scout is your AI Companion throughout your program, supporting you in entrepreneurship and career re-employment opportunities. Unlike a general AI tool, Scout reads your activity responses and builds a cumulative understanding of your goals, strengths, and situation. By the time you reach your final decision, Scout has held every conversation you've had with yourself along the way.
