Request for Advice: Picking degree/school for prospective (firestop) Project Manager.

Hey guys, I've just recently joined this subreddit, and hope you can advise me with an important decision.

My goal is to become a project manager for a firestopping company (or a self-performing general contractor with a need for quality firestopping). At my last interview I was asked if I'd be earning a bachelors in Construction Management. I said I was on track for a business degree, but it got me thinking.

--What are the best degree options for a prospective PM? I've learned there are Construction-engineering & management as well as Construction management degrees.

--Is a Bachelors in business management still a viable option for me?

--Which school did you graduate from or would recommend? I'm going to have to earn the degree online and I'm wary of investing 2-4 yrs into a degree only to find out the school isn't respected or accredited.

**Few things about me, for anyone interested**

-Currently live in Virginia

-2 yrs of PM/Estimating experience for a SWAM firestop contractor.

-5 yrs of installation experience to

-3 yrs mfg rep firm experience for Rectorseal's firestop

-Passed UL Qualified Firestop Contractor exam

-3 yrs unrelated industrial supply work

-Very passionate about firestopping
