MBA Online Course- Curious
Q: I saw on UniversityAlliance.com on how one can get an accredited MBA
degree online. Has anyone tried this with success? I'm just curious
about it.
Is an MBA degree really worth alot?
I have a B.S. in Business Administration and an MCSE and A+ Computer
Technician certification and was wondering if adding another
credential could help me careerwise
A:MBAs from recognized schools are indeed worth a lot--I think typical
starting salaries run around $70K for the one nearest here (wild guess).
But an ONLINE MBA? I dunno...most MBA programs are all about doing
projects for actual businesses, the ever-loved group projects (which DOES
mirror the real business world), etc. I really cannot see an online MBA as
having much clout. Also, one of the biggest advantages of getting an MBA
is *networking* with classmates, professors, and businesses you worked
with while in school. How would you attain any of that online?
IMO, this would not garner a heckuva lot of respect in the business world
