What Steps to Take to Transition from Water Damage Technician to Insurance Adjuster

Good morning…

I’m 23 and have been working as a Water Damage Technician (WRT) for the last 5 years. I’m thinking about switching to a career as an insurance adjuster and could use some advice on what to do in my spare time to make this transition.

What’s the best way to boost my education or skills to get into insurance adjusting? Are there any courses, certifications, or resources you’d recommend?
Thanks a bunch …
