EdD vs. PhD

So, you've decided to go back to school for a higher education degree, but how do you choose between a doctorate of education and a doctorate of philosophy in education?

The PhD is more of a research degree which enables a person to pursue a teaching profession that requires continued research such as at a university.

An EdD is a professional doctorate that prepares a student of speciality education or administrative positions. Depending on the institution, it's a toss up whether a PhD or EdD holds more weight or prestige.
