My Journey from Dead End Job to Success

[passit1]

I think the concern about a well known program vs a competency based model depends on all the inputs. At my age I'm halfway through my working years. Faster is better because I only have so long to maximize the ROI of obtaining the degree. I also have almost 2 decades of operational experience to pair with the MBA.
If I were younger with less experience and had more time to make enough money to justify a higher priced program (especially those with an overseas cohort component), my decision would probably be different.
