Free MBA Education (no degree, but useful skills)

[dposborne]

dposborne,

I'm considering the MBA from WGU. Would completing these MOOCs before starting the MBA, help me complete the program faster?

thanks

Intro to Financial Accounting and Intro to Corporate Finance definitely would help out with the Finance portion of the MBA. They have changed the MBA curriculum at WGU since I attended but the information pretty much is the same... I haven't taken the Intro to Operational Management MOOC yet, but I am pretty sure that has a lot of good information that may help out with the OM section of the MBA as well. What's really interesting is the fact that 90% of the information covered in these MOOCs provided by Wharton is stuff that was actually in my coursework at WGU, so I am pretty confident that I did get a quality education even though my MBA costs thousands less.
