For most technical stuff until you get to really high-level (in terms of thought process, not necessarily pay) theoretical type stuff, experience counts for a whole lot more than education. Unless of course you're a canadian or mexican citizen trying to get into the USA on a TN visa, then you need a bachelor's degree that is applicable to the job you're coming into the country for.
thats a pretty unbiased opinion considering your background, thanks.
some statistics state that the value of an "online degree" are as good or better than thatof someone who doesnt. The schools that are accredited and have a physical campus do not differentiate on the credentials how it was achieve, so that is a plus.
I already have a job, and a fair amount of experience, but I'm being paid probably 70% of my fair market value, even for my age.
And im looking at either Data Security ish degrees or computer forensics, depenidng on which apply to what im doing and want to do, which is Information Security...
