Reviving this thread.. currently in a similar position and have 4 options. The pursuit of higher education is due to family-social pressure/fathers personal regrets and the fact that it may boost my chances at employment.
I've been half-assing this for the last couple of years; partially because I hate school and think it's just another excuse to fuck around. The other reason being that I think I could accomplish more outside school but if the past is any indicator; have squandered much time-money-energy into unproductive pursuits.
Have an undergrad background in economics and an engineering technologist diploma
1) Pursue the PMP certification
2) Pursue an MSc in Engineering Management
3) Go through a work-apprenticeship program; hard to find at these times that covers the same material as the PMP/MSc in Eng. Mgmt. but does it via government certification exams.
4) Fuck the post-grad and just focus on building my business. Downside is it comes with massive sunk costs in time-money and I'm already facing an uphill battle from family.
