Project Management is one of the hottest, fastest-growing careers, and editor Carrie Sealey-Morris explains why: capable project managers are needed everywhere because of "experienced managers aging, retiring, or stepping back from their careers; growing industries such as tech and healthcare needing managers to keep up; and world-wide economic and industrial expansion." With such a need, "working professionals have found it necessary to go back to school for further credentialing to set themselves apart on the job market or to qualify for promotion," and schools have answered with project management concentrations in the MBA and Master of Science, or with specialized Master of Project Management degrees. Since most students looking for graduate degrees in project management are already working professionals, online options are especially important.
Value Colleges is an independent, online resource with one mission: to help prospective students find the best educational value in their chosen field. At Value Colleges, future students can find rankings for the top investments in online and residential college degrees, advice on making the best decisions about finances when in college, and explanations of commonly-misunderstood aspects of college costs.
