Higher education often opens doors and Westford’s MBA program is no exception! The schedule of classes and duration of the program made it highly desirable as the impact on working full-time was minimal.
I decided to obtain my MBA so I could increase my business acumen and advance my career.
The real-life application in many of the courses helped me to relate what was being taught to current world events. With their vast experiences, intellect, and knowledge in the industry, the professors were able to provide a practical perspective of the material.
It was helpful to have professors that were accessible and able to provide support when needed. The courses required managing tasks and your time as well as others on your team, cultivating leadership, management, and communication skills. In addition, the cohort system allows for the development of lifelong friendships and business contacts.
You are part of a greater community of learners with access to some of those at the forefront of their respective disciplines. You truly learn how to function in a team, managing excellence and challenges with a wide variety of colleagues.
