Since the Internet boom in the 90's, the pace of business has quickened. We are now able to send huge files to colleagues across the world instantaneously, instead of having to wait for next-day airmail. We can meet with each other virtually anywhere through teleconferencing, and can consistently be in touch with each other through a wide variety of mobile technology. There really isn't much excuse anymore for not making a decision because a key member of the team was "out-of-pocket." Key members of the team can and often make decisions while getting their daily workout at the gym, or late at night in their hotel rooms. Not only has communication increased the pace of how we do business today, we have seen increases in the efficiency of the supply-chain, customer relationship management, and enterprise resource management, to name but a few aspects of business that have been revolutionized by web-based software...

While growing up, many of us saw the advertisements for correspondence schools where you could earn your degree in the fraction of the time needed for traditional students at a fraction of the cost. Back then the main hindrance to these types of correspondence schools were the reputations, or lack thereof, that they carried into the workforce. Many of these institutions lacked positive reputations because they were not accredited... Click here for entire article. |

Getting an MBA online is still a new concept for many potential MBA students. Accredited, online universities have been operating for quite some time now, and people are graduating from them in droves. Many years ago, online universities saw a distinct educational need for those who had already graduated college, but couldn't, for a variety of reasons centered on the demands of work or family, complete a graduate degree. Out of this need arose the online graduate education, and enrollments are skyrocketing each year, especially as news spreads about the legitimacy of these online schools and the rigor of their programs...

When the economy is doing very well, like it was throughout the 90s, there was a downturn in MBA enrollment. It made sense that people would choose to remain working when their companies growing and when a climate of heavy investment allowed for a more creative business outlook. Indeed, many of those in the corporate world saw a business degree at that time as a safety measure that they didn't need. Why spend the time getting a degree when the labor supply was so tight that you could move into high-level management positions without one? Many also thought that what they would learn in a removed academic environment could be learned much more quickly through business experience alone... Click here for entire article. |

Historically, the MBA degree was a necessity in order to move up the corporate ladder. Young, aspiring professionals would spend a few years after college working hard to earn promotions and build their resumes, and would then reemerge back onto campus to gain the skills needed to start again at the management level. Regardless of what industry a person worked in before earning an MBA, there was a good chance they could get a job in a different industry, because the management skills they learned while getting their MBAs would transfer to most industries in the corporate world. While it is very true that someone with intelligence and management training can learn a lot after being hired, the competition for jobs among MBA students has tightened in this slower economy. MBA candidates with skills specific to certain industries have a distinct advantage to those who are not necessarily familiar with an industry but have MBAs from reputable schools...

For those who do not want to spend an inordinate amount of money to get their MBA online, here are a few guidelines: First, all online MBA programs are not created equal. Before looking at the price of an online education, you should first determine what quality standards you are willing to accept. If you are like most of looking to earn an MBA, you want your degree to impress those in a position to hire you post-graduation. For this reason, you'll need to enroll in a program that has established a good reputation. The main way for an online institution to earn a reputation is to become accredited. All colleges and universities have to meet accreditation standards that are set by regional accreditation associations, and these standards are rigorous. The quick way to check to see if the school you're considering is accredited is to go to the online school's website. They will invariably post their accreditation association on their homepage because they want to advertise their legitimacy. Once you've found the name of the association, go to its website and check to see if your state university is also accredited by that association. If it is, then the education it offers had to pass the same set of standards offered by a traditional school in your area that is familiar to employers... Click here for entire article. |

When one thinks of a world class business school, the same top names come up again and again: Harvard, Stanford, University of Chicago, the London School of Economics and Political Science, etc. These schools have great reputations and crank out top performers each year. Now what if one was asked to come up with the world's best online MBA programs? Chances are, most people wouldn't know their names. Online MBA programs, especially those that aren't affiliated with a traditional university, haven't been around nearly as long as their forefathers whose shops exist on beautiful ivy-covered campuses. Their names are not as well known. Because they are newer to the scene, they have to struggle much harder than the ancients to establish a reputation... Click here for entire article. |

Those in the military have a unique opportunity to further their education while serving their country. The DANTES (Defense Activity Non-Traditional Education Support) external degree program allows military personnel to earn online degrees from accredited institutions, and will often help offset the cost of that education. The DANTES external degree program was established to help those in the military gain access to a flexible, higher education. Military personnel often do not have regular access to a traditional education system. They are often stationed in remote areas that make it impossible to attend night classes, and also have schedules that necessitate a flexible schedule where they can study on their own time. Because of these natural impediments to education within a military career, the Department of Defense allocated money to help their employees advance their educations online through distance learning programs. |
