It isn't difficult to get a job as a trainer--places like 24 Hour hire uneducated 'trainers' all the time. To be become a real trainer takes passion, education and more education.
I think you're on the right track with this thinking, Kathy - While education is definitely important, I would also add that you should also be spending time, energy, and sometimes money on working on the business and marketing aspects or personal training.
