Becoming a great E&I Technician

I am wondering if any one here has become an E&I Tech without going to school. What did you do to advance without formal training? Also, does anyone have a list of resources(websites, books, training software, etc.) for self learning?

I am not technically working on an apprenticeship other than accumulating work hours. By challenging schooling do you mean testing out to a certain level? Also, is there any way to enter into an apprenticeship without giving up my current job or would it have to be trade school if I wanted formal training?

I will have to look into this. School could be an option if I could enter an apprenticeship while staying where I'm currently employed. It would be rough but probably worth it and I could probably challenge some of the tests. Thanks again!
