What would be the best degree path to get there?(Merlin might be another great person to ask) The other is, how many credits do the certs cover in the WGU IT degrees?
By the way, thank you for the advice..do SOMETHING. Think I needed to hear that.
I would think TESU's BSBA CIS or WGU's BSITM degrees would get you into that track, but maybe Merlin does have some better insight on that. From my experience, each cert exam at WGU covers 4 CUs. For example, the CompTia A+ is 2 exams currently and covers 8 CUs. The Net+ and Sec+ are single tests that are 4CUs each.
I'm glad the "something" comment helped....it took me until my mid 40s for it to click for me.
