For training after high school to become an electrician your best option is to join an apprenticeship. You will get formal classroom training on electrical theory, safety, etc... and also get paid on the job training experience. If you are in the US or Canada, search for The National Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee (NJATC) and you can find an electrical apprenticeship program near you.
I have completed the NJATC program and am now a Journeyman Inside Wireman in Indiana. The program is easy to get into as long as you meet the requirements of the application process...which includes a high school diploma or equivalent and a passing grade in a full year of high school algebra. Not everyone will get in on their first try, but be persistent and they will give you the opportunity to interview for a position. try this link for more info Training - www.njatc.org/training/apprenticeship/index.aspx

Have pull and know someone in the jatc. if not you gonna have a good 4-8 year wait Actually there are a few ways to do this. You can go to a Lineman College and pay to learn some basic skills that will make you more employable to a line contractor or utility. Another way is to get an entry level position at a utility and then become an apprentice. I went through the NJATC which is the National Joint Apprentice Training Center which is run by the IBEW and local contractors. I paid a small application fee, took a general knowledge test and then had an oral interview. A score is then given to each applicant and as the classes come up they choose the top scores. I will confess that it took nearly a year and half for me to actually start doing line work from the time I turned in my application. The best decision I ever made.
all answers are correct
Usually 50% of Journeyman's wages. If you are going union, currently Journeyman wages are $32.50. Non-union depends on the company, but usually around $25ish. So as a first year apprentice, expect between $12 and $15 per hour. Not bad for knowing nothing right off the bat!
