HOUSTON, Dec. 16, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Ranking and resource site, MBA Central (https://www.mbacentral.org/) has published a new ranking: The 15 Best Virginia Online MBA Degree Programs (https://www.mbacentral.org/top/best-virginia-online-mba/).
When considering an online MBA program, prospective students routinely consider if a distance degree will provide them the same benefits as an on-campus counterpart. The fact is, online MBA programs have evolved over the recent years to not only offer many of the same benefits, like that of high-quality curriculum and seasoned faculty, but it additionally adds benefits that on-campus programs cannot duplicate. Online MBA students get to continue their current professional path with little to no interruption, tackle current problems in a think tank with their virtual classmates, and immediately apply solutions in their workplace. Even more, students that possibly need to travel or go on maternity or paternity leave have the option to concurrently juggle their education in a flexible course schedule.

"When considering an online MBA program, the fact that it's done remotely is the most significant benefit," states Tammie Cagle, Editor of MBA Central. "This allows for increased flexibility in terms of when students must dedicate time to their courses." And while the location of an online MBA program is not necessarily a top factor when choosing a degree, it is still important to understand the context of the business school within a state. Companies often have connections to local business schools. Companies can provide business students with case studies, mentoring, and even possible job opportunities. With over 1,000 business headquarters within the state of Virginia, business schools are not just gleaning important information about leadership, they are also providing their next leaders. An online MBA degree is "highly valuable and opens doors to a wide variety of managerial roles in these and other Virginian organizations." These degrees hail from large and small schools, public and private colleges, and multiple degree and certification options. "The wonderful thing about online MBA programs is that there is bound to be a program out there that fits your career goals and your lifestyle."
