Many engineers advance to project management without a formal degree program. A formal degree program might enhance your resume, open up more doors and provide you with increased knowledge within the area of project management that your exposure as an engineer does not provide.

Best of luck,

I would recommend you calling the school and asking the program about whether they have career placement services to help you obtain the type of employment you seek. Ask them about the salary levels, types of positions, industries, etc. (schools often have an employment report). Then compare this to the salary you already make and whether you would be able to obtain the same type of job without the certificate. Also, look at the courses within the program and see if that knowledge will help you build competencies relevant to your future professional roles.

Good luck,

"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."
