Continuing Education

by captaintinfoil . Updated 16 years, 3 months ago

I have worked as an IT Admin and Engineer for several years and now I am looking into masters programs in hopes of better positioning myself for an IT management position. I was hoping to get some feedback to help me decide the best track to take.

– Which degree would be better, MBA or Masters in IT Management?
– How much of a difference does the school I attend make?
– Is attending a program like University of Phoenix or Keller University less credible?
– Are state schools more reputable than private ones?
– Any suggestions?

I have talked with colleges and executives alike and gotten a very diverse set of answers to these kinds of questions. It seems that most people are partial to the education al track they followed themselves. Also I have not met any two IT managers that got to their positions the same way.
