MBA Online: Opinions

What do you think about an Online MBA (in the US or Europe)?

Do you have any previous experience? Does it help to enhance your knowledge and career consistently or it is simply a waste of money and time?

Unless you have intentions of staying with your employer following graduation or your employer is financing a portion, or all, of your tuition, I would advise against it. Tuition is too damn steep for the quality of the experience.

And what do you think about online Courses?

One-off courses through online mediums like Coursera meant to fill a knowledge gap? I'm a huge fan.

Online courses at an MBA program? Not a fan. The experience is a lot less engaging for students, and there is tremendous value in the conversation, dialogue, and debate of a classroom setting, especially if the professor is a decent instructor.
