Question type: General

I'm a senior in high school and I want to become a auto
technician and detailer. Should I go to a technical school for
two years and learn and get certified. Also take some detailing
Seminars and classes During the summer? I'm a very talented
runner and could get a full ride to a 4 year college but schools
don't ever have these majors. Any tips and advice?
