“I chose the PMBA program because I had a toddler and a full-time job, and I knew I was ready to grow professionally. The flexibility of the program allowed me to get my degree without taking a pause from my career. Six months after graduation, I accepted a Director role with a Fortune 10 company—jumping two levels to do it. My PMBA has jumpstarted my career and allowed me to model success for my daughter.”
“The Daniels PMBA program allowed me to challenge myself, expand my professional network and set myself up for a better future. This was all done without sacrificing a full-time career and valuable career experience, as both are crucial components to your value in the job market. The coursework was rigorous, but very satisfying and I feel adequately equipped to be a future business leader.”
