Dog Groomer Questions

I think I chose the right place to ask, but let me know if I didn’t!

I’m currently looking for a new job, and my dream job is vet tech. However, it’ll take quite a bit to get to that point, and I don’t have the funding right now for 2 years of schooling. I love animals, and I love working with them. I’m looking for anything that’ll give me even the smallest amount of training… And I saw that PetSmart is hiring for a dog groomer trainee.
I’d love to do grooming! I’ve been grooming my dogs for years, and I’d love to learn more so I can be more creative. I have a weird coat puppy and this would help x10 to learn more about her fur :)

Questions:
-How is the training done? Is this in person or online?
-Is the training informative enough, and will there be any hands on learning?
-What does it typically look like for a groomer on a day to day basis? Is there anything in particular to be aware of?
