Individuals who were fortunate enough to hold onto their current jobs or find a new position during the economic downturn may want to ensure that they remain competitive as the recession begins to subside. Due to the fact that many job seekers have improved their educational qualifications over the past few years, working adults’ careers may be threatened if they do not update their credentials.
Fortunately, many business schools are creating MBA programs that can enable busy students to complete a degree without quitting their jobs or neglecting their professional responsibilities.
Indiana University Northwest School of Business and Economics is one of these institutions, as college officials recently announced the launch of its Weekend MBA for Professionals program, Valpolife.com reports.
This course of study offers enrollees the opportunity to take classes online and outside of working hours, which is intended to help them balance their work, family and personal commitments. The program is also designed to be completed within 18 months to enable students to earn a degree quickly.
MBA programs can put working adults on the path to a high-paying career, as PayScale.com, a research company, estimates that holders of this degree have the potential to earn six-figure salaries.
