Leaving education is not a motivation problem.


It’s a decision problem under real risk.

Most educators don’t stay because they want to.
They stay because the cost of a wrong move feels higher than the cost of waiting.

That is the constraint this decision is made under.

I’ve spent my career in large corporations leading hiring decisions from first review to final selection.

 

I have screened thousands of candidates, compared backgrounds, and decided who advances, who is filtered out before interviews, and who gets hired.

Those decisions are not influenced by effort, passion, or intent. They are determined by how experience compares against other candidates.

Outside the classroom, experience is evaluated by comparison, not intention.

Educated Exit is built from that reality.

You are likely in one of three places.
