hi CAN ANYONE ADVISE- I AM KEEN TO DO THE EBS ONLINE MBA BUT HAVE HEARD IMPERIAL ALSO OFFERS ONE- WHICHWOULD BE BETTER IN TERMS OF QUALITY AND REPUTATION. EBS OR IMPERIAL (TANAKA) DISTANCE MBA? THANKS DORON
I have heard a lot of talk about EBS, it’s all good. I have also heard EBS is very hard and will take a lot of work on your part. p.s. when I just glanced at your thread title I swore it was in Spanish.
Have not heard of DL MBA of Imperial, though it is quite a well known university. But I had taken two of the EBS exams. The MBA consists of just exams which you need to pass and takes a lot of work. Each module is one thick book of study notes.
Imperial is a top school. Imperial's program has a better reputation and according to their business school's website they are still accepting applications for their September 2010 intake.
They are very, very pricey.... •Part-time weekdays: starts each December, 24-month in length, and £34,250 – December start. •Part-time weekends: starts each April, 21-month in length, and the fee is £37,000 – April 2009 start. That’s close to $60,000 in US dollars.
Imperial's MBA is prestigious enough that the cost of the program is probably actually more reasonable than many or most comparable US schools' programs. If you need the Imperial network, it is not such a bad price to pay, but if you are just looking to get promoted within your current organization a less expensive program will obviously do just fine.
thanks all for your help and replies. Would the online Imperial MBA be more favourable to the online EBS MBA by a recruiter?
Probably but the hirer is more interested is who can best perform the job (at least in the USA - I take from your spelling you are in the UK). I would be more likely to hire someone with a BA over an MBA if I thought he was the better candidate, especially if the person had relevant work experience.
im in Aus. but im thinking about the bigger picture, as i may want to relocate on a few years and work abroad in USA thanks
