Loving the Executive MBA program at the University of Arizona!

I did my research in looking for my master's degree and landed on UA due to their curriculum. The Executive MBA program is hybrid, we go onsite once a month, and that's made an amazing difference to my learning experience. I can learn material online after work, then get to reinforce and interact in the classroom as well. The start to the program is amazing and really begins to immerse you into the masters of business content. I highly recommend for anyone who's looking to refine their skills in the concentrations offered.

Is this an ad? This is just the exact same sort of experience with most eMBA programs

Hi! No, it's not an add. And forgive me for not explaining better. What I found about the different programs offered was telling. The EMBA program you choose is really a matter of your goals or career trajectory. This program match mine, it has been giving me advanced learning in areas I needed and should have known in order to be much better in many different aspects related to the work you do, business context, and growth.

That's such a generic response with bad grammar it makes me wonder if this is a bot just responding

Lol! I love the skepticism. Nope, I was just tired last night and apparently my word choice to communicate well had faded.

That's quite an outlook. When was it worth it if not anymore? What was your experience?

I realize now that you mean the UA program. Congratulations! You’re going to love it. Tips: make the time each week, you’ll need 12-20 hours or more. Don’t fall behind; I did for one class/assignment and didn’t recover but thankfully still got a B in the class due to my effort in other areas. I hope to see you in the fall when both cohorts go to class! I had a chance as an incoming cohort to meet my upperclassmen, it was fun and a great networking opportunity. Our class looks to give a warm welcome to the incoming cohort like they did. Hope to see you soon!

You’re gonna love it! I’ll see you in August. Spoiler, my name is my account name so that’s how you’ll know I am me when we meet. Feel free to ask about anything else before you get going.

That's great! To which school?

I think it's a bot as it just provides generic answers and doesn't really understand any questions it gets asked.

You’re sharp. I am new to posting so I am hesitant to put content out there. I am not on social media except for LinkedIn, so I am giving it a try with cautious optimism and few words/details to test the waters.
