MA - Masters in Museum Studies only, emphasis is on museum studies with
        an academic core (equate to a major vs. a minor in
        undergraduate).  Typically a 2-year program.

Certificate - Requires a MA beforehand in a related academic discipline.
        Typically a 1-year intensive program focusing only on museum studies
         training.

Hope this clears things up.
