First of all, most computer forensics jobs require an undergraduate computer science degree, or a minor in computer science at the very least, and some IT classes. Talk to professors in college that you’re thinking of going to about what would be the best courses to take for such a career. So, that’s probably four years right there.
What you do after that depends. You can probably get a certification in computer forensics in a year or less, or go to grad school for 2 or 3 years and get a more thorough training in the advanced aspects. However, a lot of this will depend on hands-on experience doing things like hacking, retrieving deleted data, and so on… you won’t be working with the actual computer, but you’ll be working with a disk image instead.
And, last but not least, a downside of this is that you’ll have to deal with LOTS of child pornography, so that’s something that probably won’t be easy.
