From what I know the best way to learn to become a barista is to get a job in a coffee shop. There is a lot of demand for Baristas at the moment especially in London coffee jobs board posts them on Insta and they have a website as well.
I have met quite a few Baristas who started out in Costa or a friends place and built up from there. It takes time and practice to get the milk based drinks up to professional standard under pressure.
Also generally baristas will very happily chat about coffee if things aren't super busy so worth having a chat in your local shop about what it involves.
