Look in to each company, as some companies offer training programs and are much more likely to hire from those programs than from an external source.

In terms of education, there's a few schools in MA:

Lassen Community College, AS degree...yes English 101 helps in running a business. I would suggest a niche. Service a market share where cost is not a problem...in your state...trap shooters with high net worth.
