Is An Executive MBA Relevant Or A Distance Learning MBA Relevant

Hi Everyone,
I have a query.I am a HR professional with 4.5years experience in HR.I am planning to do my PG in HR .
I have 2 options in my mind.One is PG in HR from Symbiosis thru Distance Learning & the other is an Executive MBA of 16months from ITM through weekend batch.
Distance Learning will have online assignments & exams,whereas ITM will consist of lectures & projects.
I am confused which will be better and which will have better credentials in the industry.Would request seniors to help me out.

Hi Jaya,I can tell you about Symboisis, in Symboisis there is a simple process of assignment and exams. It's books are also in very simple language and useful. It is worth doing for working person, because sometime you have time or some you don't. Suppose you have exam and same day there are an urgent meet in your office what will u do. In Symboisis U can choose your exam, assignment date and time.I did it, it was very simple and helpful and easy also.Narendra BadiwalJaipur

I would suggest you to decide based on your working pressure. But according to my knowledge you may opt for distance course as you are holding nice experience into same & one cannot manage due to work.
All the Best... take care :-)

Hi Jaya,
I partly agree with swati i.e you have to choose one among the both according to your work pressure. but i think you should opt for ITM as you mentioned that there will be projects and lectures at weekend it will be helpful as you will find a good range of people with similar interest like you and it will allow you to explore more as a seeker and contributor.
As a knowledge seeker you can gain a lot no only from the lectures but also from your batchmates as they contribute their experence and knowledge.
As a contributor you can share you experiences and knowledge.
I think this will be a better option.....
thanks

First you need to check which course you can do with your daily official schdule and than think for the best option.

hi Jaya
I agree with Madhu...
I am also for you joining Executive MBA..you get to interact with people and have professors for guidance.. and its almost like the normal MBA.. i have come across some MNC's insisting for FULL TIME MBA's..
Agree Symbi has got its brand value..but its not a fulltime prog thats whys...

Hi Jayalaxmi, I would recommend you Sikkim Manipal University is best at their field. Their edunxt technology to create a virtual classroom where you can interact with the faculty and students and thereby also network with other students helps a lot to students. You can also clear your doubts related to MBA by consulting to their faculty by registering here: (MBA Distance Learning | MBA Distance Education | MBA Part Time | MBA Correspondence | )

As per my knowledge, the executive MBA of 16 months from the reputed institution of ITM is more beneficial since it involves projects and lectures. The projects will give practical knowledge of the course and the lecture will be easy to grasp and understand rather than online assignments which becomes difficult to understand most of the times. The online executive MBA in India is offered by the institute of ITM which you can enroll for.
