Enroll in a technical school that focuses on car repair and computers. Also try to get a job interning at a local garage or car repair facility. Hands on experience always helps.

The best way is to go to a trade school for auto mechanics. Then apply at a garage that does auto repair. I would also go to auto repair shops and see if they have an opening for an apprentice helper that will teach you on the job.
