Hi everyone I work as an electrician in industrial facilities, and I have been studying mechanical engineering for a long time, but I would like to learn electrical engineering. Can someone give me advice on the best path to take? Thank you

What Mech Eng course are you doing and how far along are you.
I only know the UK routes from 40 year ago although I believe it's still the same. It's unlikely you can go straight from an HND or equivalent straight into a Masters program as mentioned above unless you've got an extrordinary work experience portfolio from your company. Usually you would go into a BEng Bachelor degree first. This was the route I took studying at night school and part time up to HND then being accepted into 3rd year of BEng program, it's a long steady slog but it allows you to work whilst studying. I think there's online options available nowadays as well.
