should look at a trade school and do the school and then start looking at electrician shops he can be an apprentice at. Be prepared to climb ladders carrying heavy wires for the next year or two. About the time he graduates high school though, he can be a journeyman electrician. Again, you mileage may vary, but because the local high school near me has a system with the trade school, he could do all his schooling for the cost of the books.

Not a bad deal at all. You kid seems smart.
