Online MBA Business Schools

The number of people looking to make an online MBA is increasing every year, but many have not taken a look at the dropout rate is the same, leading to the conclusion so many of the courses begin, do not reach important due to the need to recognize and change today, not tomorrow.

It is understood that the acronym MBA mean " Master in Business Administration ( Master of Business Administration ). It consists of an academic degree that is type "graduate" and focuses on business skills and operational functions of an enterprise, while the second year focuses purely on the perfection of managerial skill.

The problem of abandonment of MBA programs has not been seen in the classroom, where actually 90% of students leave the course airy, however, is in online courses where 60% just get the coveted title. For this reason we have implemented special programs whose sole object is to engage students in a better way.

One of the most important reasons to motivate a student to leave their MBA studies is not adapting to the format of remote education (online), then personal problems and others. Universities seeking to meddle in this market segment "elite", have worse outcomes than traditional business schools, for graduate only about 50% of its students.

The explanation to this phenomenon as the dean of the George Tsetses Below School of Business at the University of Dreamless, is that students believe that the classes taught in a book just came out, so wear is caused mainly by the type of content and quality.

Strategy changes are needed

The task is clear, get prepare students for self-discipline and complete an MBA. To comply with the new way to approach the MBA from the start, there are some initiatives such as that undertaken by the S meal College of Business at the University of Pennsylvania, where he joined a mandatory program for students where they are prepared to take the decision starting an MBA. Ann Silver thorn, director of the program, is very pleased with the results, because in practice it was to raise the graduation rate to 87% instead of 78% was seen in 2009. The program began with 23 students, today it has 250 students.

A good way to encourage students who might participate more in front of an online MBA is with many online forums and working groups, situations in which they are forced to interact, share and participate in other areas that need not necessarily specialize. The example leaves the University of Warwick in the UK is just excellent, they implemented a special program that allows students to work through the video conference mode and writing a document online to let those who could not attend, says Rachel Killian Marketing and recruitment manager for the School of Business at the Online university programs.
