Explosive growth of the good and the bad MBA

Universities and colleges have increased supply of courses as a way of boosting their income. Assessment is provided by the Association of MBAs which offers a consumers' view. Criteria used include an adequate number of teaching staff with relevant qualifications, and an adequate number of students.

Part-time and distance courses just the ticket

Article Abstract:

MBA study should be undertaken after students have accumulated some experience. This can cause problems in terms of giving up work, so distance learning and part-time courses are possible solutions. Employers see part-time courses as useful and they can benefit from unpaid consultancy work if the student carries out a project where he or she is employed. Distance learning is useful where students are in remote locations or cannot obtain time away from work to study.
