    I'm close to finishing my master's degree in Criminal Justice
    online and I have read that a lot of community colleges and
    online schools prefer candidates who would be comfortable using
    technology in the classroom and in the online format. I'm
    having a tough time deciding if I should pursue my Ph.D in
    Criminal Justice online or pursue a specialist degree in
    Instructional Technology. I know that there still may be a
    stigma attached to an online Ph.D so I'm considering the Ed.S
    degree to gradually give me some more credentials in the field
    of education. I know that many public high schools in the south
    pay well if you have an Ed.S degree but I'm not sure if
    community colleges and online schools are familiar with the
    specialist degree yet. CAN SOMEONE HELP ME MAKE AN INFORMED
    DECISION?

    THANK YOU!
