Fast Masters Degree?

[lumpylump]

I'm actually trying to finish CCNA in the next few days. With WGU you can have the classes "cleared" IE passed if you already hold the cert when you enroll. Only those classes that end in taking the certification exam. They recently changed the program to go with CCENT instead of CCNA (they said it fit better with the intended goal of the degree, a little less network tech), but of course CCENT is half of CCNA so they'll accept either.

Last time I checked, WGU also dropped the horrid(*) EC-Council Enterprise Disaster Recovery Professional (EDRP) exam from the curriculum so the degree is 32 units at the moment. This leaves the CCENT, Certified Ethical Hacker v7 (CEH), Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI), and the GIAC Certified ISO-27000 Specialist certifications to earn. I believe that's 11 units that could be earned ahead of time and transferred in.

* EDRP was "horrid" because the study materials provided by EC-Council were.. ah... not so good and the exam had a high first-time failure rate. EDRP was still in my program and I felt fortunate to pass it on the first attempt.
