In the days of the NX-01, how would one become an officer?

There is no Starfleet academy, and I can’t recall a discussion of any person from earth attending a university (apart from Archer referring to Cal, Stanford, and Texas? in Water Polo) and entering laterally through ROTC

I was watching S2 E20 “Horizon”, where Travis goes back to his family ship and his mom said they were discussing his joining Starfleet 4 years prior. He had been on the ship for about a year at that point, so was he granted rank based on his experience on his family ship, or was there an OCS school?

    Did Travis do any formal corresponding school education while on the ship to earn a degree?
