The world of business is rapidly changing and your professional survival will depend on how adaptable and equipped you are to perform and achieve outstanding results. Are you prepared? Can you afford to wait? Top recruiters will confirm that the right MBA experience will improve your chances of landing your dream job while enhancing your skills to succeed in the ever-changing local and international business landscape. What should you consider?

1) The value of an accredited degree

If you are seeking career advancement regardless of whether it is an upward climb or a career transition; the right MBA is globally recognized and considered an essential foundation for persons interested in a career path in management and leadership. Why is this important? Wherever you are in the world and no matter how the economic climate changes, your degree will be recognized for what it is: a stamp of the highest quality of your expertise, enabling easy career movement and growth when the time is right. Does this align with your career goals?

The UWI-Lok Jack GSB has attained programme accreditation for the International MBA through the Association of MBAs (AMBA) from the UK, the gold standard in postgraduate business education in the world. Since AMBA only accredits the top 2% of business programmes globally, it is an assurance of quality from this top MBA accreditation body. This achievement means that all students can be assured that programmes, from design to delivery, have gone through a rigorous process to ensure the highest quality. But it also means special and exclusive access to these gold nuggets:

1. Access to an online global community of over 30,000 students and graduates from over 245 AMBA-accredited schools
2. Online Career Development Centre, including global MBA-level jobs database, CV builders, elevator pitch advice
3. Face-to-face and online events and webinars
4. Newly launched business book club offering exclusive discounts up to 30% off selected titles
5. High quality thought leadership, including monthly in-house publication AMBITIONmagazine
6. Access to exclusively negotiated benefits with hand-picked partners including IHG, The Wall Street Journal and Financial Times

Where else can you get all this?

2) New and international opportunities

There are numerous International MBA options in Trinidad and Tobago, but it’s like comparing apples to oranges: not all International MBA’s are created equal. The final decision is yours, but you must ask yourself “do you want to carry the MBA title or do you want to develop the necessary skills, learn with a powerful network of like-minded individuals, participate in the holistically transformative experience and thereby EARN the MBA title to be able to use it in real-life?”

This is your chance to be part of an experience that encompasses a practical approach to real-life business problems through the Lok Jack GSB’s authentic learning approach to education. Students who are part of the programmes are exposed to relevant content and experiences, such as international study trips to places like China, Brazil and Silicon Valley to name a few. Our partnerships give us exclusive access to global internships with large multinational companies and other international alliance benefits, that will prepare you well for the international business world. Employers are apt to choose graduates that can do the work from an international perspective.

Applying to do a Post-graduate degree can be a daunting prospect. You want to ensure that you’re investing your time, effort and money wisely and research whether or not you’re getting the calibre of education you signed up for.

Did you know that having an accredited degree can make a huge difference in your future career?

Imagine that:

• Your graduate programme didn’t have a process to resolve student grievances
• When you applied to pursue your graduate degree, you had no information on the curriculum or assessments and policies?

How would you feel? What would you do? 

This then is the value of accreditation, ensuring that there is a standard of quality to adhere to. Doing some research on what accreditation means for you can save you both time and trouble in the future.

Here’s why Accreditation DOES matter:

1. “Quality is the Key”- this is the motto of the Accreditation Council of Trinidad & Tobago(ACTT). Institutions with ACTT accreditation lends to the institution’s dedication to providing quality education for students and instils confidence that the programmes are supported by high quality processes, standards and resources. Why do we say this? Well, this accreditation body only recognises and endorses institutions that have sufficiently met their rigorous and methodical accreditation process. The key components of this process includes institutional self-evaluation and external evaluations conducted by teams of local and international expert assessors established by ACTT, ensuring that you get the quality you expect.
2. There isn’t a single person we know who doesn’t want value for their money. The accreditation process assures you that the education you’re paying for is valuable and worthwhile. The process, outlined above, makes certain that an institution isn’t just saying“take our word for it” when it comes to quality and integrity. Accreditation, therefore, is not so much a status to be attained but a commitment to ongoing improvement.
3. While a higher chance of mobility and employability is not guaranteed, employers can trust that the graduates of an accredited institution have been well-prepared to shape the corporate world, thus making graduates more marketable.
4. Financial support by the government. With recent announcements stating that GATE funding will only be awarded to institutions with ACTT accreditation, it’s imperative now- more than ever- for you to seize the opportunity to apply to an ACTT accredited institution; only given to institutions that are financially sound.

Think carefully and do your research. Consider if the school also has international accreditation and the implications of a registered institution vs an accredited one. Need further advice and guidance?
