How do I become a consultant?

To become a consultant, you must consider how much education you need and what kind of experience would be most useful for your field.

Normally, consultants have a bachelor's degree and even a master's degree, though it is possible to become a consultant with only a high school degree. What can help leverage the lack of a higher degree is experience. In fact, many consultants go through internships or have had roles such as project manager or manager.
