One interesting aspect of the PMBA program is I am training myself to handle a lot of information in very short time frames. It is a lot like training for a 5k race, you run regularly and get faster the more often you run. The PMBA program structure is three classes per semester that are 4-6 weeks long, one after another. So you might take Business Writing for 6 weeks, then Macroeconomics for 5 weeks, then Strategic Management for 6 weeks. After the second or third semester, you have found your stride in what the program demands. The rest of the time builds endurance for working at that level in new careers. This program isn’t just learning material, it is conditioning us to be competitive in our new career paths.
