Database Administrator or Web Developer Training

<p>OK, bare with me as I try to make this brief … it’s a little complex.
Current Education: BS in Political Science (2007)
MA in Theological Studies (2011)</p>

<p>Work Experience: Data Analyst (i.e., I make lots of reports for management)</p>

<p>Goal: PhD in Church History or Systematic Theology; professorate</p>

<p>So, now to my question. With there being very, very few jobs as a professor in a seminary, I am debating about getting some training in an IT related field – to supplement income or act as a backup. </p>

<p>What type of education/training do employers look for when hiring a database administrator or web developer? – those are my two interests. </p>

<p>Some seem satisfied with an A.A. degree from a technical college; others want a bachelor’s in CS or MIS. I am currently looking at a BASc degree in informational technology infrastructure from a very reputable school nearby that is in the college of continuing education. It takes a little from CS, IT, and MIS. </p>

<p>Thanks for your time.</p>
