I do not understand what you are confused about. I specifically mentioned that I am looking for something more advanced than a masters degree. The fact that most post-masters certificates contribute to the school's master's degree program I see it as taking master degree level courses. I stated I wanted something more than that. I even went as far as explaing NCU's program of C.A.G.S. which is an advanced certificate of taking doctorate level courses.
Yes. I am aware of what PhD's are. They are research degrees. But I must point out that you are wrong about doctorate degree being research degrees. Many doctorate degrees do not require any dissertation or research at all. the J.D., M.D., ect... You are mixing doctorate with PhD. PhDs always have a dissertation while doctorates do not.
What I am looking for is a certificate that involves advanced graduate studies at a doctorate level online.
