MBA Armoury For Economic Woes?

By the My MBA Career Content Team – Find Top MBA Degree Programs

Furthering your education while the economy is in crisis can be the perfect time to address how you can bring value to the workplace by learning about real issues, not just hypothetical ones, it has been reported.

Speaking to Business Week, Rosemaria Martinelli, Admissions Director of the University of Chicago's Graduate School of Business, makes the claims in a discussion whether now is the time for people to emphasize education.

Executives face difficult decisions and large-scale company problems, while a business degree could potentially stand you in good stead for when the economy recovers, the forum continues.

One way you may decide to educationally equip yourself is through a business MBA online, which could mean that while the markets are unstable, you can stay at work and have financial security.

Meanwhile, Erin Nickelsburg, Admissions Director at the University of Wisconsin-Madison's School of Business, says: "Not making an investment in yourself can turn around and haunt you when the economy goes back up."

Furthermore - possibly highlighting the cost advantage of an online MBA - forum member Asha comments on the article and says that people may be unwilling to sacrifice two years of salary to go back to business school.
