Walden .. the beginning
Nearing the end of my MPH program, I asked a question of several people: Should I have a dual MPH MHA degrees, or should I pursue a doctorate? Unanimously, the answer was Doctorate.
And that began a search and review of a number of possible doctorate programs which led me to Walden University and my chosen Doctorate in Educational Technology.
I was accepted in January and have now complete two weeks of my first course: an orientation to PhD programs which focuses on writing a learning agreement which will guide my studies. So I’ve made a new category in the blog and added a new photo: there is something just — or ironic– about a guy who builds a cabin by himself going to a school named “Walden”.
The photo is taken from the deck during a break in my writing Saturday morning.
