Homeland Security - TESC Question

[irnbru]

If you're moving up the corporate ladder then maybe specialist knowledge is less important than positioning yourself for the longer term in general. You've switched from one market to another in order to achieve that and things may change again in the future. So, that would mean an MBA is both the common sense and strategic solution; especially if you may be moving out of the front line sales position.

In the short term, you could quite happily become conversant with your clients by knocking out FEMAs in your own time and at no cost. Otherwise, since you are currently in role, at which point in dialogue would you look to introduce a degree in Homeland Security to your clients?

I hope someone can chime in with possible testing out options and alternatives but would counsel against sacrificing strategic progress in order to achieve a relatively short-term, niche expense.

edit: in fact, why not just use FEMAs for one of the reasons they were originally intended - as professional development and crisis management courses sponsored by the US Gov, etc
