Are you in the process of deciding between obtaining a Master's Degree -- perhaps in some element of IT -- and obtaining additional certifications? Its a tough decision, and one in which there aren't really any good answers.

Certification Magazine came out this month with an excellent cover story on the problem. I've read through the piece twice. The first time to read its contents and the second to get some pull quotes for this blog post, and I still find myself at a loss of what to do. You really need to read this piece in its entirety to get a full perspective on the decision.

Taking the perspective of both employers as well as graduates, the piece doesn't definitively answer the question. But it does provide further fodder for helping you with your own decision.
