About to finish and going mad! - laknight - 10-24-2024
Hey Gang I joined in March I think and y'all have been a tremendous help so thanks
Currently at UMPI will finish in December with a BA in Political Science and minors in International Studies, Business Management, Management Information Systems.
First question of input, I want an MBA prefer a CBE program. Really liked the UMPI structure since I've been able to really move rapidly. However I feel like I could get UMPI's MAOL considerably faster. What are realistic time frames, estimated of course? To give an idea of my pace I've done 27 hours my first 8 weeks at UMPI, that's all upperclass courses. I'm not opposed to getting both MAOL and MBA if I were to get the MAOL first. Doubtful I would go back should I get the MBA first as I anticipate it having the greater ROI.
Second Lean Six Sigma, quite simply put, where, how, who, when etc?

To streamline everything... Get the UMPI BA done first, do the Lean Six Sigma as an option if you wanted to right afterwards while waiting for admissions to the Masters. You can do the MAOL in 1 session if you complete 3-4 classes that can transfer into the MAOL during your BA studies. You can then add the HAU MBA if you have the time in 1 year, or the WGU MBA if you need it done faster in 6 months.

Thanks for the advice, had similar thoughts always good to get some reaffirmation.

For reference, I suggest going for a certificate (not certification, I don't think it's worth it for a certification, but the certs are), https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-Free-Lean-Six-Sigma-Yellow-Belt-at-USF
You can get the Yellow, Green, Black certificates from Stack Social here, again, don't bother with the certification, you can also go for the Green/Black belt for $10 cheaper: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-MSI-Update-No-longer-IASSC
