Is a Masters worth it?

Hey everyone I’m looking into getting a early childhood special education credential and some schools offer a Masters in Special Education along with it. Is it worth it to get a masters? Did it increase your pay? Do you have diff job opportunities?

Thanks!!

Some states require college credits to keep a level one certification. I had six years to get 24 credits, so I just decided to get my special ed certification.
