What's the shortest path build (race/profession/attributes) to get an alt into a Mining Barge?

I did Caldari Achura / Stargazer / Industry / Prospector.
You'll start with Refining V and Mining V. So, you'll be able to fit things like a strip miner II as soon as you get your barge. You'll get a number of other industry skills that are quite helpful (look here for all the starter skills by race and profession).
Plus you'll get a boatload of Intelligence and Memory, and none of what you don't need (Charisma). You'll be able to train learning skills very quickly, and then you really don't need much to get into a Retriever...basically Industry V is the only one that takes more than a day. So, it will go fairly quickly.
My alt just finished training all the related Retriever skills (cap stuff, mining crystals, processing), and is now on the long road to a Hulk, with 35 days to go...

Like the guy above me said, it takes an awful long time to train up the spaceship command skills when you set yourself to do Industrial characters.
Implants are the quickest solution to that problem but if you don't have much cash or get podded through low sec mining then it might be a consideration in just putting one or two extra attribute points to perc and will to offset the 'pain' of spaceship command training.

Stats in order Int/Perc/Mem/Will/Cha seems to be the best 'industrial' option at the moment, as you do need more than 'few' SP in starship command fields also and it hurts to have low stats in there. Like Mining Barges V and Exhumers V for example if you are serious about mining and possibly also your racial industrial skill to level 5 to get acsess to freighters and T2 trasport ships. While Memory might seem atractive at first, it's not as important as it might seem at first. You will get Mining V, Drones V and Mining Drones V a lot faster than abovementioned spaceship command skills.

Although i could only afford the "level 1" implants how do they affect the spaceship command aspect? Dont I still need to train the cruiser and battleship skills, etc. to get into one of those ships?? regardless if i have implants or not??.

Great advice. Thks.
created my ALT as above and will make him a 100% miner. Will be on a retriever in week approx. Where can I find the additional skills that i should b training for more efficient/faster mining? in safe space to start with. any sugesstion will be appreaciated

Halada's complete miners guide is a good resource:
