I don't know, that is a pretty bold claim guy. Think I'm going to have to disagree that any professional certificate would create more opportunities than a graduate degree.

Depends on what you want I guess.

In IT many places would much prefer their Cisco admins to have a CCIE over a Masters in MIS or whatever they call it now.

Same with say - a Unix Admin. Experience means a LOT there, as it takes very little and just one wrong move to hose up a Unix server

oops.

So it just might depend. I never did finish college personally. Ended up party-ing too much after High School and having kids too early. But I guess tenacity and experience made up for a lot of it. That being said, I'd still like to go back and get at least a four year degree. But in a way I'm hesitant - I don't ever want to manage people, I've done that before and it sucks.

Managing machines - for me - is a lot, lot more rewarding and I'm better at it. I'm too laid-back to manage people. Seems like anyone in IT with more than an undergrad degree are all MBA's.
