I am looking for your feedback on a question. I am wanting to pick up my MCSE and Security+ certifications. I work full time and the area of the country where I live is very spread out so going back to school full time is out of the question. Could you give me some good suggestions for online schools that you would recommend for someone wanting to pursues the path of certifications and possibly a degree?

Thanks in advance
