[INFOGRAPHIC] Is an online MBA worth it? The value of the MBA in 2021—and beyond
Busy business professionals around the world without a master’s degree often find themselves at this exact crossroad, wondering, “Is an online MBA worth it?”
Here’s the short answer: unforeseen and problematic challenges will always face businesses and those that lead them—as proven by 2020 more than ever before in modern times. This past year, we faced a business landscape that had to operate in an almost entirely virtual space, an unprecedented challenge for many businesses.
And a challenge that unfortunately not every business was equipped to overcome.
Preparing your business and career to tackle unforeseen challenges that arise, global pandemic or not, remains the number one reason to earn your MBA in 2021.
FOUNDATION FOR STABILITY AND SUCCESS
The education provided by an MBA lays a foundation for students to stay ahead of advancements and unpredictable issues. MBAs deliver a set of proven business tools and skills that help leaders better anticipate change and lead the charge in adapting to it with ease.
Is an online MBA worth it?
Online MBAs take that critical preparation one step further, giving students the added benefit of a flexible learning environment, arguably the most important condition driving education decisions for working professionals today.
