You can attend a school such as the Digital Animation and Visual Effects School, the Vancouver Film School, Gnomon, or Full Sail; regular collages also provide some training, but usually don't provide as much in-depth training as these specialty schools provide.

It is also possible to self-teach yourself through accumulating knowledge from vfx web forums or buying training packs. However, it is usually much harder because you need to search for all the information yourself in various places, and don't have an experienced professional nearby to give advice or help if something goes wrong. You would also need to provide yourself with the software, as opposed to having access to it at a school lab.
