I'm not staying at Maestro
It has been a long exhausting couple months... been on both sides of the choice for a while. BUT... I'm now in the process of moving to WGU for an accelerated Computer Science and AI focus Masters degree. 4 years of time give or take, with being a 25+ year IT professional I can even test my way through the stuff I've been doing for years and they are considering taking at least some of my current credits. Some industry certificates are included along the way on top of the degree. Reading the courses involved it is WAY closer to the depth I was expecting here, where I'm looking to be... and definitely more on track with what the senior dev folks I work with know. https://www.wgu.edu/online-it-degrees/computer-science/accelerated.html Read the 'Courses' section, the 39 listed in the Undergraduate section is their equivalent to the BS in CS Maestro was offering... and they are not remotely the same! Plus the test out plan is AAS.

Lots more hoops to jump through to get into WGU, haven't got official start date yet, but still tentatively Dec 1st. I need to hit the library on Tuesday to have the on staff Notary verify my ID
No more coding, man!!
I so can’t wait until Columbia College contacts me and I can transfer!! I can’t take this coding anymore!! Gonna lose my mind cuz it just ain’t sticking!! I know I should wait til end of term to transfer. But I need to end this coding stuff asap. 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 Yes I’m aware that there may be a bit of coding in the Cybersecurity program I am transferring into. But at least I’ll hopefully get a break from it for a while.

without the coding foundation... plus infrastructure, networking, and systems administration / engineering foundations... Cybersecurity will be a hard mountain to climb!
