Invest in Yourself for a Big Return
Dreamed of continuing your education, but can’t fit classes into your work schedule? Online education enables a degree seeker to continue working while pursuing the education necessary for career advancement. Obtaining a Master’s in Business Administration (MBA) is an investment that will pay for itself within a few years. MBA holders see an increase in salary almost double that of regular degree earners. Earning potential is only one perk of an MBA. Others include keeping up with the changing business landscape and acquiring the qualifications for high level management positions.
Select a Quality Program
When choosing an online MBA program, there are a few criteria that will make sure you have chosen a quality program that is right for you.
•Look for one accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). Schools accredited by AACSB are most attractive to business recruiters because it demands the highest requirements. The next best option is to choose one that is regionally accredited, such as the North Central Association of Colleges and Universities.
•Cost has to be a consideration. Weigh the value of the degree against the potential rise in salary of the company where you now work or the company where you want to work if you are thinking of changing jobs.
•Format of the online program will let you tailor your degree to your skills. A general management focus will provide an overview of skills versus a program in a specialized focus, such as the marketing or finance.
•Determine if you are able to maintain the time commitment of a full-time program or if a part-time program is best able to coincide with your busy schedule. Full-time workers may choose part-time so they can keep up with the rigors of work and coursework.
