Need advice in putting together degree plan for my wife (and me)
#1
First post after trying to absorb lots of info here. First off, thank you all for putting together all this. There's almost an info overload here! I swear I have 4 spreadsheets and like 25 tabs open trying to do all this.

Basically I am trying to put together an online degree plan for my wife (I'm borrowing her signup name). She has a good job and experience, but nothing to quantify it if she went elsewhere. And she wants growth too. She works with a lot of CISCO systems and such.

After research I recommended Computer Information Services at TESU, but she is really pushing for Cybersecurity. I found the Cybersecurity requirement from TESU but most here said to go with WGU instead. I have found a template for TESU CIS from a post here that I am tweaking and another template for WGU Cybersecurity, but it looks like the Cybersecurity one has lots of courses that you can't test out of. Like, 16 in total. Is that correct? If anyone has any templates or advice for either degree that they could share I would appreciate it. We are starting from scratch, no previous credits or anything.

As for myself, I think I want to try and get a degree too but not anything as extensive as Cybersecurity. I just want something that will be easier to get, but also useful. I know I can't get 'huge salary useful', but anything that will help me get a decent job. I would appreciate any advice on this also. Thanks for the help!
