if you can afford the time/expense. take an 'entry level training' course at a nearby college. 10 months long and usually equates to first year apprenticeship when you start a job. most shops will not take on a person with no experience/training. too much chance for expensive damage to cars or you. worker's compensation board takes a dim view of shops that let untrained people get hurt. safety and proper tool use is a big part of the 'ELT' course. like gtihop said. red seal interprovincial first, then specialize. you also need this because employers will always use your non-ticketed status to pay you much less than you would otherwise get. good luck,
Don.
