This is a tough question to answer because it depends on what type of preacher you mean...
In most states, you can register with the Secretary of State as a cleric of any religion... though most of those states do require supporting documentation from a recognized religious body.
However, from a Christian perspective, becoming a preacher requires a call from God... and no one can tell you how to get that... you just have to listen for it.

It takes annoiting from God, through the Holy Spirit. You need to be called to be a preacher. A rich prayer life, and indwelt with the Holy Spirit, makes an awesome preacher as well. If you believe that you are called to preach the gospel, talk to your pastor and preach the word that is in your spirit. Most all preachers I know always have a sermon running through their mind. Be blessed, In Christ.

To be a really Honest to God Preacher then you have to be called to Preach by the Holy Ghost, No one can tell your to be a preacher not another preacher not your mom and dad, you can not go to school to be a preacher, you have to be called by God.

If you're going to Preach GOD'S WORD (Bible) Then GOD HIMSELF Will Put That Calling On Your Life And Spiritually Anoint You And Help You To Carry Out HIS PLAN!....Not Man's!....Serving GOD is different from applying for a new job, or taking on a new hobby!.......some people have taken their own way in some of these leadership positions and FAILED!.....Why?...Because GOD Did Not Choose Them For That Position! (Jeremiah 17: 9- 16).....also read (Eph. 4: 11: 16)......PS. It would also be to your benefit to talk to anointed Pastor/Ministers, they can help you with any questions as well as Train you in the spiritual things of GOD!........

If you have to ask, you will never be one. You don't just decide one day ' I am going to start preaching'.. You have to be called by the Spirit, Study hard, be willing to work for nothing sometimes and hold down another job to support yourself and your family. Now, if the Spirit does summon you, He will show you the way.
