Got your PM. Thanks for the information, it is very much appreciated. I will certainly check it out.

Very sound advice indeed. I know that I need to make a decision that sits right with me. I am having a hard time figuring out where I would get the best bang for the buck. I don't have a lot of money to spend and I want to spend it wisely. I am not looking for a big name school, I just want to supplement my experience with education so that I will be more marketable if need be. I am nearing 50 so spending $50k on an MBA/IT or something like that is out of the question.

Are you indicating graduate certificates, or certifications? I am contemplating PMP certification, but I also want to have something that last a lifetime. I am getting tired of re-certifying every few years.

I don't think that is the same school. I think Aspen University is in Colorado.
Thanks for the link; there are a lot of colleges and universities listed there. It will provide additional programs to research
