<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ToughCOINS, post: 3951477, member: 20480&quot;]I passed on the &quot;opportunity&quot; to spend tons of money and time to go back and get my Master&#039;s in Engineering Management from a revered engineering school, only to formally re-learn much of what I&#039;d already assimilated through work experience and in many courses already taken on the job.&nbsp; I&#039;ll grant you there would have been a select few areas where I would benefit substantially, and several more where I could deepen my knowledge somewhat.&nbsp; Unfortunately, a lot of the material would repeat what I&#039;d already learned, and the cost likely would not be recovered, although the institutions will never allow you to believe that.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>One of my co-workers obtained that degree and, based on my observations, I have no regrets at all about not attending.</p><p><br /></p><p>The PHD is much the same . . . although generally built more on research than on traditional learning, it still demands a lot of practical on-the-job training after the doctorate is received.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
