RE: University Degree or CISSP

["Nidschelm, Robert" <robert.nidschelm () hp com>]

Hello,

I've noticed that hardly any employer really cares about certs only, if
you don't have the degree with it, unless it's specifically asked for in
the job-description that is and even then. IMHO it's better to do a
degree and work from there.

Regards,

Robert

Is it better (in terms of technology and industry acceptablity) to get a
university degree on information security than certifications such as 
ccna/ccsp, ceh (or security+) and cissp?
