Welcome to the forums
Some tips I would suggest to start into an IT career and prepare for WGU would include the following suggestions. I would start by reading books or thinking about what your interests are in IT: networking, systems, security, management, etc.. Look at applying for internships or doing volunteer work at libraries, churches, non-profit organizations to get yourself some solid experience and get you more acquainted into the industry.
As far as certifications: A+ would be a great place to start to get you some basic knowledge. If you have any questions feel free to PM me.
Good luck!!*Associate's of Applied Sciences degree in Information Technology-Network Systems Administration
*Bachelor's of Science: Information Technology - Security, Master's of Science: Information Technology - Management
