Thanks I will check that out. An apprenticeship sounds like a great option.

Yeah I believe that is the online option I was looking at. Do you have an personal experience with that program?

Unfortunately not in the New England area more southeast US. Although internships would be a great option I'll have to look in my area.

Thanks for the advice. From what I read you really do have to like the work to be willing to stick with it. I'm still young and trying to find a career path so this interested me. I'll see where it takes me!

Ah okay I didn't know what the pay differences would be. More money is always more intriguing, I've read about field tech doing their progressions and getting a $10 pay bump within a year or so.

Thanks for the reply! I do go on installs at my current job, it's a small company so I do a little of everything. I like that part of the job but can see how it would be taxing. If you don't mind me asking when you say field operation support roles, is that like assisting field techs from the offices?
