1. The easiest way to learn all of this is by working in a lab. Most of it is practical skills rather than theory, but there are so many different things you need to know that I couldn't even begin to enumerate them. I would not worry much about PCBs, unless you have to design circuits. Then the easiest way is to get layout software, make Gerber files and send them to a PCB prototype fab. Simple two sided circuits have become really cheap now and you couldn't make more than two layers in the lab, anyway. Soldering... if you have a modern temperature controlled soldering station, it's rather easy. Those are so cheap that getting an old style unregulated iron is a waste of time. The bigger issue is circuit design. That, unfortunately needs some serious education or you will never leave the "it did not work, so I soldered this to that and it still does not work right but I just pretend it does" path of many amateurs.
2. Electronics Technician at a good trade school for starters.
