Certificates for Postgraduate student

Hi all,

I am doing a postgraduate study in Computer Security. I would be interested to move into the CF field in two or three years time. To be prepared for that, I wanna do some studying in this field. I have seen the list of possible certificates here

http//certification.about.com/cs/securitycerts/a/compforensics.htm

I was thinking of starting with the CCE certificate, any suggestions what to do next? Obviously, some of the course are not affordable for me, I am not willing to pay 3000 Dollars for a 5 days course. However, I would be willing to spend some money on an online MSc in the UK.

If anyone with experience could tell me a good way to get into the CF industry I would be very helpful

many thanks
