After buying our house a year and a half ago I am not ready to chuck my computer career in favor of a construction / rehab career. I just love working on the house and want to learn more about all aspects of rehab. Having no experience other that what I have learned through books and the internet, what would be the next logical step in getting into this career? I found an online college (Penn Foster) with a concentration in rehab and construction. Should I do this, should I try to find a company that would hire a newbie as an assistant? Not sure of how one gets into the biz. Any advice would be great. Thanks!
