Mini-MBA Training

Mini MBA

The Mini-MBA is quickly becoming one of the most popular ways of gaining business knowledge without the time commitment or the fees of an MBA graduate degree.

Focusing on similar topics in business management to an MBA, Mini-MBAs can cover the management knowledge and learning you need to boost your career in a flexible and more affordable way.

The Mini-MBA was introduced by the McGill University in Canada in 1949, designed to be a short intensive course compared to years of study. Consequently, it’s not difficult to understand the appeal of Mini-MBAs to busy professionals that need to juggle study with work and possibly family.

Experts in this area believe the Mini-MBA is geared toward three main types of participants:

  • The prospective full-time MBA student, offering candidates the chance to sample the flavor of a business degree before fully committing. It gives candidates a far more comprehensive understanding of what an MBA involves
  • The candidate looking to enhance knowledge in a specific area. While undertaking a full-time MBA gives you a comprehensive view of all areas of business, for those looking for more specialized focus, the Mini-MBA is ideal.
  • The candidate looking to enhance their own business competency, while remaining in a specific role—a lawyer or an architect, for instance, looking to enhance their business understanding of the industry.

Of course, there are many other great reasons for business professionals to pursue a mini MBA. A mini MBA program also appeals to managers with no graduate or business school experience looking to enhance their skills, or individuals who want to learn valuable skills to improve their chances of receiving a promotion, pay raise, or new position.

Or then again, sometimes people who pursue a mini MBA do it simply because they have a genuine interest in the MBA topic.

Many feel a Mini-MBA is about learning the language of business, and understanding the systems thinking for business.

Our current Mini-MBA courses are in the following areas:

Blockchain

Blockchain is a system of recording information in a way that makes it difficult or impossible to change, hack or cheat the system.

A blockchain is essentially a digital ledger of transactions that is duplicated and distributed across the entire network of computer systems on the blockchain. Each block in the chain contains a number of transactions, and every time a new transaction occurs on the blockchain, a record of that transaction is added to every participant’s ledger.

Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity is the convergence of people, processes and technology that come together to protect organizations, individuals or networks from digital attacks.

Cybersecurity has become more important than ever and will continue to be a crucial modality of protection in the digital age. Cybersecurity encompasses everything that pertains to protecting our sensitive data, personally identifiable information (PII), protected health information (PHI), personal information, intellectual property, data, and governmental and industry information systems from theft and damage attempted by cyber criminals.

Green Energy

Green energy is any energy type that is generated from natural resources, such as sunlight, wind or water. It often comes from renewable energy sources. The key with these energy resources is they don’t harm the environment through factors such as releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.

Renewable energy provides reliable power supplies and fuel diversification, which enhance energy security, lower risk of fuel spills, and reduce the need for imported fuels. Renewable energy also helps conserve the nation’s natural resources.

Business Management for Military and Veterans

Unquestionably, a career in the military is like no other. After years of dedicated service to country, the world as a civilian employee can feel foreign and impenetrable. Learning to successfully communicate and apply the experience acquired while in uniform is an imperative part of a successful career after leaving the armed forces.

Current employers of former servicemen and servicewomen who want to help position these unique hires for long-term success in their organizations also play an important role in identifying and cultivating their potential.

Our Mini-MBA in Business Management for Military and Veterans offers a unique opportunity – both for those with military experience, and those who wish to recruit and retain them. Together you can learn how to understand business management skills through the lens of armed forces experience.

Oil and Gas Transformation

Technology has rapidly shifted from being the legacy enabler to being a game changer. Oil and gas companies that respond to the ongoing industry volatility by investing in sustainable digital capabilities will be tomorrow’s winner.

Industries are embracing technology to reshape their operating landscape and reap the benefits of improved productivity, higher efficiency and increased cost savings. The oil and gas industry is not a stranger to this and is progressing toward digital maturity.

Telecommunications

Telecommunication is the transmission of information by various types of technologies over wire, radio, optical or other electromagnetic systems.

The telecom industry is changing rapidly as it adapts to everything from standalone (SA) 5G and blockchain to new applications of AI and machine learning. And, on the horizon, there’s 6G, an inchoate creature taking on a new form of its own.
