How to go from nothing to a competitive hire?

I want to pursue NDT for several reasons. What appeals to me is the overtime and pay ceiling. I’m looking at my options, some people say to just apply to companies hiring green hands, but those don’t seem common. What steps can I take from here to secure a job as an NDT Tech?

I have a UTI location near me that offers NDT training, but a lot of people don’t recommend it. AINDT is an online option, and claim 93% of their graduates find their career job, so that’s seems like a solid option if true. I don’t want to spend 2 years at a community college to get an associates.

Is there anyway for me to isolate the necessary certifications and throw it on a resume to be more competitive than the average applicant? What steps would you take if you had to start over?
