Good question! Before you start working on job sites, you usually need to register as an electrical apprentice, depending on your state or local rules. You'll have to finish an apprenticeship program, which includes a certain amount of training and supervised work hours, to become fully certified. I suggest looking into local electrical programs with small businesses or government-run electrical companies.
