Is a 1 Year MBA Right for You?

Did you know that a one year MBA can boost your salary by tens of thousands of dollars? I'm Ellen and I share all of the best kept secrets that you need to get into a top MBA program. Most people think that you need to spend two years in an MBA program to get all of the benefits that this degree brings. And that's just not true. A one year program still allows you to take classes that hone your skills, build your network, and take advantage of career resources that allow you to land a very high paying job. A one year program can be especially interesting if you fall into one of three categories. First, if you're a little on the older side, think six, seven years of experience. An MBA that only lasts a year allows you to get back to the market faster, get that promotion you've been looking for, and move up the career ladder. Second, if you work in a really fast paced industry like tech, it can allow you to stay up to date with innovations that are reshaping your industry at a really fast pace. Finally, if you're looking for unbeatable roi, a one year MBA cannot be beat. You're going to spend less on tuition, you're going to have lower opportunity costs, and you're probably going to spend less on cost of living. So if some of these factors resonate with you, a one year MBA might be a great choice for your career. And I think that's a secret worth sharing.
