IIM Bangalore - Micromasters in Business Management - Batch of 2024

The support from the Pearson Team was stupendous

Other: I was a bit apprehensive when I joined the Micro-Master of Business Administration conducted by IIM, Bangalore. After a tentative start, I realized that this was the most appropriate decision that I have ever made.Â The overall program modules and content were simplified for easy use of a tight time schedule. The instructors were lucid in the transfer of knowledge and were in sync with theÂ Â needs of the industry. The self-paced nature of the course is the highlight of the entire course and can comfortably gel into a time-pressed schedule.Â The support from the Pearson Team was stupendous, for lack of a better word. The response was prompt and appropriate. Never was an issue kept pending and the resolution very favorable.

IIM Bangalore - Micromasters in Business Management - Batch of 2024

great course

Other: All the program modules Statistics that we have learned in this course are essential for organizational and societal decision-making. This is a great course. It is nice to know that this course is identical to its Ivy League counterparts. Thank you for including the statistics analysis and its comprehensive coverage, this certainly is useful to us. It was exciting to be able to apply certain concepts learned in the course to an actual work assignment I was doing at the time. The ability to apply one concept in the "real world" encouraged me to look for ways to incorporate the other concepts learned.
