Graduate Certificate to help with Promotion or Advancement

Post by Anonymous User » Fri Jul 07, 2017 9:01 pm

After the bar I will start working in the technology legal group of a Fortune 500 company. They have a few Cybersecurity attorneys and I would like to move my career in that direction down the road. Would it be worth the time and expense to pursue a graduate certificate in Cybersecurity to make myself more competitive?

I know Grad Certs are pretty cheesy, but Harvard offers one through their Online Distance Learning Program. That's really the only one I would consider.

Any thoughts???
