This program is available 100 percent online, for maximum flexibility.

Entrepreneur and small business owner for nearly 20 years, Heather McPeek MBA ’19 states that completion of the UPIKE MBA program has validated her confidence and competence as a business owner. “Because of my hectic schedule and business commitments, I would have never been able to complete the MBA program in a traditional classroom setting,” said McPeek. “The online program provided invaluable experience and afforded me the opportunity of attaining a master’s degree at the age of 42.” Dean and Professor of Business at CCOB Howard Roberts, Ed.D., says this rigorous and respected online degree program can change or catapult your career with credentials that are needed for a rewarding vocation.
