You could start here: [https://learn.sketchup.com/](https://learn.sketchup.com/)

And [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC50lv4EYY1N1\_-B495meX8w](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC50lv4EYY1N1_-B495meX8w)

And of course if you have specific questions, this forum is a great place to ask them.

As to the steps you should take, start by learning how to use the basic tools and work flows and then build on that.

What sort of things do you plan to model? Some of what you need to learn could be determined from know what you need to model.
