If the local police use dogs, call and ask them about trainers.

You don't mention where you live. In the United States, the San Francisco SPCA has a school for dog trainers. Pat Miller also runs a training school in Tennessee and Dogs of Course has one in New York state. Or, apprentice with a trainer in your area.

Find a trainer near you and talk to him or her. There is no official certification to be come a dog trainer. Any person can just decide one day "I'm a dog trainer." There are national and international organizations (Association of Pet Dog Trainers is one) that do have membership requirements, so looking at what those requirements are would be a good start.
Most dog trainers though get started in it by just apprenticing with someone who's already a trainer and then that person can advise you on classes, seminars, conferences and workshops that you should start attending in order to increase your training skills.
