IF U CANT DO A FULL TIME MBA ATLEAST PLAN FOR A UNIVERSITY RECOGNISED PART TIME EVENING MBA WHERE U CAN ALSO LEARN BY CLASSROOM COACHING WITH THE FACULTY
MBA HR is an excellent career option and is very challenging ..The best option is to do an MBA as a full
time programme...This will be the best way to move on to higher posts in any
company .U can look at the TISS,IIM's,,XLRI -JAMSHEDPUR,NMIMS -MUMBAI ,MDI ,SYMBIOSIS-PUNE and such to name
a few..U MAY ALSO CONSIDER THE MMS FROM MUMBAI UNIVERSITY..Refer www.jbims.edu
U CAN GET MORE DETAILS ON ALL THE ABOVE FROM THE WEBSITES..
Besides YOU MUST try to acquire maximum inputs in the feilds of psychology,
economics,sociology,maths ,political science and such .Further u should
develop ur skills in public speaking ,written and spoken english and also
computer skills.It is most critical to increase ur general awareness of
current events,business trends & Practises via reading and use of world wide web .

i wont be leaving my job and do an MBA degree .so either part time or distance learning is the only option ? also since i am workin in IT industry, wont an MBA in IT or operations help? is distance learning from universities like wellingkar or symbiosis of no use?
Answer IF U CANT DO A FULL TIME MBA ATLEAST PLAN FOR A UNIVERSITY RECOGNISED PART TIME EVENING MBA WHERE U CAN ALSO LEARN BY CLASSROOM COACHING WITH THE FACULTY ..It will hold more value than a distance MBA from anywhere...
