That's a crazy idea! haha, just kidding... I was in your shoes before. There are three things you should work on:
1) Finishing the Degree - you can add a certificate in HR if you wish OR you can have a double concentration, AOS in both GM/HR. Strangely, you need the same amount of 18 credits for the certificate and second AOS, but courses are different! This is true for all other certificates and AOS's, find the one that's "geared for you" or cheaper/easier/faster.
2) Certification - I would start off small, such as getting a Corporate Trainer Certification from MSI, they have other certs I've taken (such as Six Sigma, they're accredited by IASSC not ASQ). MSI https://www.msicertified.com/about-us.html and MSI Certs https://www.msicertified.com/certifications.html
If you want to also venture into TESOL, you can get an online TESOL Advanced certificate or a TESOL Foundation certificate (combination of Advanced + Business). The one I recommend provides ACE credit and it's cheaper than most others I've found! http://www.americantesol.com/american-te...itute.html
3) Experience - I would take the time to learn the "corporate trainer" role while you're getting the degree/certs done, once complete, you'll have more experience and recognition under your belt. Then you should apply for the Corporate Training Manager role. You may want to do that while getting your MBA.
