Hi @Jason (Pastor)
The easiest way to go is to get a CompTIA A+ certification and work either via phone (tech support/help desk) or on location (IT technician). The tech support positions are either in a call center or work at home via phone. Then you can study to get other certifications (like the CompTIA Network+, CompTIA Linux+, Cisco CCNA, etc.) to move up and get better pay. I think the A+ is being updated soon to a new version, which CompTIA does every 3 years.
Here’s the guy who helped me get my A+ back in 2010 and Network+ in 2012. Free video courses on YouTube with monthly live study sessions.
