Just a short post to update all my regular readers out there (yes, both of you) that I start my new job next Wednesday and I started school full-time today. Yes, today. I have started in the BS – IT Security Emphasis program at Western Governor’s University. I don’t have a projected finish date yet, but their competency-based model means that I can finish my degree much faster than with a standard program. (Word from one of the admissions counselors is that IT professionals going in to the IT program tend to finish their Bachelor in around 2 years.)

Although I shouldn’t have to remind anyone I will: everything I say (well, type) here is my opinion and does not reflect the views or opinions of my employer or the school which I attend. With that said I have only one small grievance about my first day at WGU: every link in the student portal has a target of _blank or uses a js call to open a new window. Grrrr. My opinion: bad design idea.
