Jack Welch recently announced that he would be launching an online MBA (https://www.businessweek.com/bschools/co ... 962094.htm). He claims he will be heavily involved in curriculum development, even teaching, the managerial principles that made him one of the most revered executives of all time.
Yawn. For Jack Welch's online MBA to be truly novel, he will need to lean on his sizable corporate rolodex from a post graduate employment perspective. That is, he must convince corporate recruiters that a product of his online university, would be equally (or better) adept at solving problems than traditional schools. If Welch makes a few calls to GE and ex-GE execs ( Home Depot, Best Buy, etc), he could influence hiring from his online MBA graduates and this could become a revolutionary education format, one that would threaten traditional schools. If not, it will disappear into the muck of already crowded online education options. Wait and see.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."
"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."
"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
