Benefits of a Champlain College MBA

Why an MBA?
The real value in a graduate degree is more than just what you learn -- it’s how the credential you earn will impact your career and your ability to make a difference for your current or future employer. An MBA remains an essential credential for a career-minded professional because it will increase your earning power, improve your marketability and heighten your potential for promotions, according to the Association for Financial Professionals (2004). An MBA says that you have completed a course of study and have learned the disciplines required to run a business or manage a company.

Why a Champlain MBA?
The old belief that an MBA’s content or courses alone would automatically prepare a person for an upper-level management position produced unrealistic expectations for both MBA graduates and employers. It was this lack of integration between the classroom and the workplace that inspired Dr. Don Haggerty to create the Champlain MBA.

Champlain’s MBA is different from other institutions’ because it integrates its curriculum with what you’re doing at work so that what you learn has a demonstrable, immediate and profound impact on your professional life and your organization. Your workplace becomes your MBA learning lab where you will incorporate what you’re learning and take the results back to class for discussion, analysis and reflection.
