==========================================================

The post-baccalaureate certificate programs of the SANS Technology
Institute offer tightly integrated combinations of our most sought-after
and advanced technical courses:

Learn the core of Cybersecurity Engineering,
from hands-on network defense skills to advanced
intrusion detection techniques;

Focus on Penetration Testing across multiple
technology platforms - networks, web apps,
wireless, and/or mobile; or

Build-out your Incident Response skills on hosts
or networks, including reverse-engineering malware.

Each course taught by our faculty may be taken either live at a SANS
event or online from home or work. Each program, comprised of three to
four graduate courses, is designed to be completed over 18-24 months,
allowing time to schedule around your work and personal life.

"All courses completed as part of the certificates program may be applied to the master's degree program should you be accepted to that program within five years. Tuition for each course in a certificate program is currently $5,000."

While I think SANS provides a great curriculum/forum for infosec, whenever I see these programs which bundle their existing courses with a new certificate nameplate on it, I can't help but imagine the folks over there were sitting around a conference room table thinking, "Here's a way we can get more cha-ching with what we already have!" Not that it's a bad thing, but it's unfortunate that I can't use my existing training to gain recognition in these programs, especially considering how often I seem to end up taking SANS courses.

They really like to make these things as unaffordable as possible, don't they?
