Mar 14, 201313 yr I was wondering switch track is better in the long-term masters in management/leadership or masters in education? I have to pick in less than 2 weeks?
Mar 18, 201313 yr management/leadership, you can do more with that. In my hospital you can go into educatin with a management background, but its harder or less desireable to go into management with an education background
Mar 20, 201313 yr Author Thank you. That is what I was thinking management route would benefit me better. Thanka again.
Mar 20, 201313 yr Experts Unfortunately, I have to agree. But I think it is sad and really shouldn't be that way. Too many managers and clinical experts "think" that teaching is something "they can always do if they need to" ... and become educators with no knowledge of education. It is terrible for the profession to have so many people who have such little knowledge of how to be a good teacher.But I have to agree that it is a common belief and managers will hire people into teaching positions who are not well-qualified to teach.
Mar 20, 201313 yr What do you really enjoy, blkcherry? There are jobs in either specialty area, but the curriculum for the two programs is likely quite different.I encourage people to pursue graduate study in what they really like. Graduate degrees in nursing usually lead to different career pathways, and you should want to go in a direction that excites you.
Mar 21, 201313 yr Author I actually like being in charge while educating. That probably sounds crazy but its the truth. So it's been really hard to pick one track over the other. But after speaking with others about which track has more job potential, it was basically hands down management/leadership track. However I think they were more about the money side of it too.
