Pivoting from electrician's helper to something new - 20 weeks in

I want to move from electrician's helper to something with more stability. I am in Sacramento, in case local advice matters. My family is supportive but nervous. How did you start?

You likely have more transferable skills than you think. Write down what you did, not what the job title said.

I began with informational chats, then a short online course, then a related entry-level role. It took about 11 months.
