TLDR : Answer Summary
The individual is seeking advice on how to convert their Ed visa, which is expiring soon, to a Non-B work visa while staying in Thailand. A comment suggests obtaining a job with a WP3 form and then going to Thai Immigration to seek a visa change or extension before the Ed visa expires, with a mention of COVID-19 possibly allowing for additional options.

Get a job with WP3 ...go to Thai Immigration to seek change in visa / extension of stay.

Do it before your Ed visa ends.

Otherwise seek extension of stay due to COVID.

Would in country conversion be a WP1? A WP3 is normally used at a Thai embassy/consulate?
