Taking the Next Step in My Education

Since I completed both the UBC Sauder School of Business – Certificate in Management Excellence and the Carnegie Mellon Institute of Software Research International – Certified Enterprise Architect program, I have been looking to take the next step in my education.  Here is an older post where I asked “What Masters Program should I choose?“  I now have an answer to my question!

I applied for and received funding from my employer, BCIT to pursue a graduate level degree.  With the funding approved, I applied to the Masters of Science in Information Management Program at Syracuse University’s iSchool.  Last week, I received my formal letter of acceptance!  I will begin my program in September 2010.  It has been a very long time since I have been in a formal education program.  It should be an interesting ride.  I will be continuing my day job and will be taking most of the program online.  I am looking forward to a trip or two to Syracuse University and will now cheer for the Orange!!

Here is a video about the program:

I will regularly post my progress on this blog. Wish me luck!
