• Pace University

  
  

  

  
  Well I’ve change one of my New Year resolutions.  I was going to study and seek to take the PMP management exam – to be certified in project management.   Instead I have applied to Pace University, in NYC, in order to take several graduate level classes to get a certificate in Advanced Software Development & Engineering.  It’s a year a half commitment where I will be staying late in the city, one day a week.   Two good things are that the credits can be applied towards a masters degree and secondly my employer will reimburse me for the classes.   
  
  It’s been a long time since I been at school – so I am a little nervous contemplating on getting back in the swing of things.  Tonight will be our first class – and I expect to get home some time after 9:30 PM.    Seems like a daunting challenge, but just like my training for the half-marathon, I need only look at one day, or task at a time and before you know it, Lord willing, I will be done.
  
  I must say that I very much appreciate my wife’s support in both these ventures.   She’s great!
