Studying for an MBA is a very large commitment
of both time and money, and if you are working full-time or have heavy family and social commitments, then it can be very difficult to do justice to
this commitment. However, an online MBA in Management may be the answer to this problem.
Online degrees allow you to study without having to take time to travel to campus and take classes. You can download lectures and study materials
and then choose when and where you study; at home or at work, wherever you have access to a PC and a connection to the internet. You can communicate
with your lecturers and your fellow students by email, and have group discussions using chat room technology. Many people find that group work using
electronic technology is really successful, because you have to organize each member of the group for specific tasks, and because email automatically
documents much of the informal discussion processes.
You may be able to use your work as a part of your study; some of the most successful projects are based on real situations, and if this is planned
properly you may find that you are able to bring some new techniques to your work, and obtain feedback from a real situation for your study - an invaluable
learning tool.

Leadership skills, Strategy, e-commerce, Project Management, Risk Management, Human Resources, International Business, Non profit Management, Organizational

change to a concentration in a certain subject area.
