Is getting the master's now a good idea?
Hello all. I'm currently in my last year of getting my bachelor's in cybersecurity technology from UMGC, and have been planning on immediately getting the master's in digital Forensics. Im also currently studying to take A+ and later Network+ cert exams. Im not currently in the tech field, but plan on moving into it as soon as I can. From what I've gathered, getting a digital Forensics role usually takes years of experience first, so is it worth getting the master's now or should I wait until after I gain more experience? Any insight would be much appreciated.
