opinions on SSBM DBA program?

[michaelbarbas]

Hello,

I am wondering the group's opinions and familiarity with the Swiss School of Business and Management DBA program that is offered through Upgrad (Indian education company I believe)? The total cost of the program is $11,000 USD although I believe the payment plan is only 6 months to 1 year. When I looked at the accreditation, they are accredited by Eduqua which is a Swiss quality certification for educational institutions. They state that on the following webpage https://www.ssbm.ch/accreditations-memberships/ that they are "members" of IACBE and ACBSP. Apparently, I have found out that there is a difference between the program being accredited by ACBSP and just being a member.

Any insight would be appreciated on the reputation of this program. The cost is affordable and it sounds good, but, I am skeptical as I have heard questionable things about the program and Upgrad seems kind of aggressive in calling me back so I am a little gun shy.


Thank you,

Education seeker

You are wrong. SSBM is not just a Member in ACBSP. The institution is fully Accredited by ACBSP since 2022: https://acbspsearch.org/Home/Details?instId=Inst4485. As your comment may mislead scholars or graduates or even institutions, you should request pardon from readers.
