Here is my 2 cents, go to a local electrical supply house and ask them who is looking for work. They should know who is busy, who is not, who is looking for help, etc. Then try and work in the field for a while before you enroll in a school. If you like the job, ( and some people don't) then I would find a good , local vo tech and get your class room training or go into the union apprentice program. Try it first before you waste your time money and effort in a trade school. Are you afraid of hieghts? Or are you afraid of crawl spaces? Electrical work may not your cup of tea then. One of my helpers was afraid and he couldn't do the high work or the enclosed spaces type of work. In that case, why would he want to be an electrician?
