For me, yes, I'm interested in obtaining a graduate degree in the research administration area as I don't want to get a Master's in Accounting. I have yet to apply a single thing that I learned while getting my Bachelor's in Accounting as a research administrator. Besides the email from Melissa below, I didn't know an MRA even existed. So I was basically going to get my CRA and be marketable with only that (and my experience, of course). It seems now I have an opportunity to do both (CRA and MRA).
