How good is the Management Programme for Family Business in ISB Hyderabad?
I can share my brother’s experience for SP Jain School for Global Management. The Global Family Managed Business (Global FMB) is an innovative 12-month Tri-City programme. It is designed to provide the knowledge, skills and attitude required for family-managed businesses to address challenges that are unique to family-managed businesses.
Global intelligence is a unique consequence of the Global FMB programme as participants are given opportunities to live and study at our campuses in Dubai, Mumbai and Singapore, and as a result, develop the skills necessary to take their business global.
For those aspiring to enter the corporate sector, a traditional Master's programme is ideal. The FMB of S P Jain acknowledges that family businesses have unique business and family challenges involving ownership and management issues, and is designed to incorporate comprehensive coverage of these issues.
S P Jain's GFMB promotes all-round development covering all dimensions of family business so that you can operate with experts in all fields.
IIM Calcutta has a digital marketing certification, is it worth doing?
Getting certified from any IIM in any course is definitely an achievement. But the selection process is not easy and requires more time and effort than you think. If you want to get a digital marketing certification from IIM Calcutta, you should have the proper knowledge to crack its entrance exams. Also, you should be confident to excel in the industry. Only then is the certification worth it.
If you are unable to make it into IIM don’t go for any other Institute for pursuing a digital marketing course. The reasons for this are:
-
Colleges offer digital marketing courses for a minimum of 2-3 years. This is unnecessary as digital marketing courses can be completed within 3-6 months
-
Colleges offer these courses are high fees whereas you can learn the course from an industry expert for less than half of the actual fees
-
Colleges focus more on theoretical knowledge. Whereas a course like digital marketing requires a more practical approach. This can be made possible only through an industry expert.
-
MBA colleges do not guarantee placements.
So we can say that a digital marketing course from IIM is not as valuable as one you can get from a Digital Marketing institute. The high fees, duration, and lack of placements don’t make it worth spending so much time on.
Can someone who has done or is pursuing PG Certification in Digital marketing and Communication with MICA & upGrad review?
A lot of people have taken up the course and several alumni from this course have shared their valuable reviews for the students seeking this program:
- Excellent Faculty- Leading Industry Professionals have been included in the teaching process. The professors are India's best Digital Marketing Faculty who will teach you deeply industry-focused working methodologies.
- Collaborations- The course itself is a collaboration between MICA and upGrad. MICA is one of its kind institutes in India, or maybe, the Asia Pacific Region, which excels in Strategic Marketing and Communication.
- Academic Curriculum- This PG Certification Program spans 6.5 Months with 180 hours of content, 15 live sessions, and 9 tools and platforms that teach you how to: (a) Develop Brands that your customers connect to. (b) Strategize Digital Marketing and Communication Campaigns, and many more.
- Case Studies- In order to expose you to real industry scenarios, this program provides you with 10 case studies and 10 industry projects, after completing which, you are given detailed feedback by industry people like Marketing Lead at Facebook, Marketing Consultant at Group and many more.
- Learning Support- Each student gets a learning mentor allocated specially for him/her throughout the program who will not only guide but also make sure that the student is making progress and takes the lead.
- Networking Advantage- Several BaseCamps are organized by upGrad that are informative as well as fun. Many career-building workshops are organized by Professors and industry Professionals where you can participate in group activities with other students and even alumni. These activities help to establish networks within the industry.
- Career Support- Guidance and regular support is provided near the completion of your course which includes:
- Career Coach
- Career counseling
- Resume Feedback
- Mock Interview
- Job Placement
- Transition through Better Placements- After the course completion, you earn Certifications and also the MICA Alumni Status, which opens the doors for opportunities like SEO Specialist, Digital Marketing Manager, SEM Manager, and many more.
Overall, the PG Certification course is worth the effort, with students gaining a salary hike of a maximum of 125% and an average increase of 43% after the program.
Executive Certificate Programme in Digital Marketing from IIM KASHIPUR Talentedge. Is it worth taking this online course?
Only you can provide a better answer than anyone else. When a program or course is held, the goal is usually to provide information and knowledge about the subject. If you are interested in Digital Marketing and want to learn more about it, you can enroll in Executive Certificate Programme in Digital Marketing from IIM KASHIPUR Talentedge.
However, you are aware that everything is available on YouTube and Google. So you can learn from social media platforms as well. Essentially, what happens in these courses is either some practical or guidance by mentors or instructors, which is fine, but it should be tailored to your needs and budget. If you believe it will be too expensive, you can switch to YouTube Digital Marketing Videos or online lessons.
Which is best option, the executive program in sales and marketing at IIM Calcutta or the postgraduate certification in business management at XLRI, Jamshedpur?
Only the full-time PGP courses of IIM Calcutta or XLRI are valuable. All other degrees/certificates are the only means of earning money by the institutes.
-
They have no real value in real life or the corporate world.
-
They won’t be very useful if you want to learn.
-
They add no value to your CV
-
You will not be considered alumni of the institute
So these certificate courses/ part-time programs/ Executive programs carry no real value at all. Most people are misled to believe that they might add value to their CV.
IIM Kozhikode is offering Project management course, Should I opt it when I am already PMP certified?
If you are already PMP certified then pursuing Project Management course of IIM Kozhikode will not add much value to your experience. This is because
-
Firstly the course is for professionals who are interested in acquiring the PMP and CAPM certification. Since you are a PMP certified professional, it means that you are an experienced professional too. So this course will add no value.
-
Secondly, the objective of the course is to impart real-time work experience, and understand the principles of project management. As a PMP you already have these skills.
If you want IIMs title for your CV then go for it. But know that you won’t learn anything new from it.
I have done part time MBA from IIM Lucknow (WMP), Is it okay to apply for PGPX courses at IIM A/B/C?
No, I wouldn’t recommend you apply for a PGPX course at IIM A B or C if you have completed a part-time MBA from IIM Lucknow. The reason is the huge overlap of electives in almost all the programs offered at IIMs. Leaving a few courses most of which are repeated in all the programs be it part-time or full-time.
Towards the end of the course, you might end up spending a hefty fee and lots of time and yet not learning anything new. If anything you might just get placed at a better firm. But that too will be useless if you are unable to harness the acquired knowledge and skills in the open market. The question is if your job will be worth your year lost, your lost opportunities, and 25-30 lakhs of loan.
Still, if you want to pursue the course go for a top MBA course abroad. That might make a difference in your resume and job prospects.
