Subject: Professional education strategies
A member of the division who is considering potential professional
development opportunities is interested in comments from the list
membership about some questions they're wondering about. Specifically:
- When hiring an EHS professional are you more likely to interested in a
candidate's experience, or do certifications or graduate degrees carry
more weight?
- If graduate degrees are important, does it make a difference if they
are on-line or in-person degrees?
- Are employers be more interested in hiring people with specific
degrees (eg, Industrial Hygiene) or more general ones (eg, EHS
Management)?
If you prefer to respond to these questions privately, feel free to send
them to me directly and I'll pass them back to the person asking the
question.
Thanks for your help with this.
