Very informative thread but too long to read some of the dispute. Here's my dilemma so hopefully someone with experience can advise.

I am in my late 30s, holding a mid level managerial role. I am planning to do MBA, preferably one with accredition and support from EPF Account 2 withdrawals.

I am thinking to do MBA to help boost my career, I think it would. Why? Because I feel to move up in upper management, Degree may not be enough, especially one with average result.

I plan to do MBA part time as I am working with family commitments. I am currently looking at HELP MBA Online course, but need some comments. Other options for online distance learning works for me too as long as accredited minimally locally.

Appreciate some feedback. Thank you.

The Top 3 MBA programmes in Malaysia currently are:

1) Asia School of Business in partnership with MIT Sloan Business School and Bank Negara Malaysia
2) Sunway Lancaster MBA
3) Strathclyde MBA

I wouldn't bother to do any other MBA's in Malaysia.

Anyone from Lancaster?

so every 6-7 weeks theres classes on Thurs-Sun?

I believe Strathclyde is every 2 weeks Sat - Sun full day, which does seem alot more taxing.

In any reputable MBA course, the real challenge is not the classes itself but the assignments.

i'm asking as would like to have someone to verify this.
Considerations like these have to be taken into account for a job that travels around alot.

Coventry University is ranked 15 in UK for the year 2017:

Hi all,

Anyone here from Imperial global MBA? How do u rate this mba?

Hi guys, I'm surprise there's an ongoing MBA thread there.

I've been in the workforce for 10years now and thinking to advance myself so I was thinking of getting MBA courses or PMI.

Unfortunately, PMI required to have experience in Managing to get that so looks like MBA was one of the better choices for me.

But I have doubts. I do not know what to find and which to choose. There's so many college offer such course and I do not want to make a wrong choice which will wasted my time.

Is there any standardization for these courses? International standards like kind of ACCA like we use to hear for accountings. Obviously, I do not want some college just make everything easy and give u a certificate which is worthless. What should I looks at?

Recently I saw one college called Wawasan offering RM24K for MBA. I like the timing as it's one day class per month for 2 years.

What do you think? Need some advise.

MBA is not a means to get rich quick.

Any advices for UM's MBA? Considering its the best bang for bucks - in terms of it being the only double crown MBA prog for public uni @ 28k?

To be honest, not so sure why everyone is so obsess with it. IMHO, we should look at the quality of the course in terms of delivery and the experience surround it.
