As I understand it, the MBA is a pretty much international degree. I doubt if you'd have much trouble with the accreditation of a Canadian MBA in Europe or the US, or anywhere in the world.
Except, ironically, India, where for some reason accreditation, which is supposed to be done by mutual treaties and similar mechanisms, seems to be taking forever. Even medical qualifications are taking decades to get mutual standards of recognition. The problem is that recognition of Indian qualifications isn't being achieved at even a snail's pace, so reciprocal accreditation isn't something you could take for granted.
I think, but I'm not sure, that India has taken the practical approach, rather than wait for sanity and efficiency, and is doing more recognition of foreign qualifications than it's receiving in return. I checked out MBA Accreditation in India for you, and came up with this link: http://www.bschools.indiaedu.com/mba-accreditation/mba-accreditation-india.html
Foreign companies in India would be the exception, obviously, if external MBAs aren't recognized yet. |

It's better to think European, rather than specifically national, in this case. I've done articles in the past on these subjects, and I can tell you from experience to check the current state of all these visas and permits. They change often, and they can get a bit legalistic. Rather than give you an encyclopedia of links, I suggest you make direct contact with the embassies and get their current info, rather than the stuff I did last year.
Generally speaking, the EU is progressively taking over the work permit thing, and although it's still national legislation in all its various forms, they're working on a standardized process. If your employer is an EU employer, you get the benefits of the employer's entitlements under EU membership. Belgium is very well placed in that regard, with a lot of treaties, local entitlements, etc, but you have to put up with their somewhat bureaucratic, but efficient, processes. It takes a while to get your permits from the communes, but you get a good set of consistent rules to work with, too.
Belgium does have a system for permanent residency, and their whole approach is quite well developed. They're not called the crossroads of Europe for nothing, and their system is perhaps the best.
For study, Belgium is also pretty good, they have a range of top line colleges and good study visa regulations, it's relatively easy.
If you're an Indian citizen, by the way, Belgium has recently signed a new treatment with India, which gives certain new advantages to Indian citizens and employees of Indian companies. That's another possible legal side entrance, may be worth checking out.
France and Germany are a bit less helpful, at the moment, because of the recession. Their work permit systems are basically international standard, but they've been hit very hard by the recession, and unemployment is a big issue.
Spain: Doing worse than other EU nations, wouldn't recommend. |

Definitely, international business. Marketing makes money mainly at the top. However- In your area, business with marketing is definitely a big plus, because you know the merchandising and the rest of the process. You have the advantage of speaking the language of marketing, which many of the business managers don't. It also makes that experience pay for itself, so it remains highly relevant on your CV.
As long as you have the business side as well, you can get into business and marketing management, which is where both the money and the better jobs are. You can get in at middle management level, with that experience and business qualifications.
Demand: This is highly variable, and sometimes territorial. Some companies are better than others for promotion and office politics, and you're advised to research employers beforehand. |

Are international students given work-permits there, after MBA?
Which country is better for doing MBA & post-MBA job?
Canada or UK or France? |
Rahul
Don't know of anywhere that does give a work permit after a qualification. Obviously it's easier to apply, but it's not a criteria, without a sponsor, employer, etc. Of the three, Canada, definitely. |

hello , I request for advices/ directions from one of you. I am ex army officer, 35 years of age, from India who has a commissioned service experience of 13 years. My experience are in fields of human resource, disaster management, administration and machinery/ equipment management. I am trying for an executive MBA from any of the canadian universities. I am trying for an executive MBA as i could be in company of an elite crowd who would be in some position in corporate world, and also would like to work during the program. I request your advice in the following,
1. will my leadership experience help in obtaining a senior management job post EMBA?
2. will my experience suit the requirements of an operations management post ?
3. Is the EMBA of canadian universities, like haskayane school of business, toronto university, york etc a platform for success in management/ corporate jobs and worth the money?
thanks, mathew |

1. There are actually two definitions here. Your military experience as an officer translates as "management" for the purposes of the degree. MBAs do require management experience. It also incorporates leadership, which is often part of essential management criteria.
2. Yes. "Operations" does mean operational management.
3. Canadian universities are well regarded internationally, on a par with any other English or French speaking nation. The MBA is perhaps the high level international standard business degree. It does work as a platform for success, and is also often a requirement for progression in business management.
"Worth the money": Yes, unless there's any real question of overcommitment. It can also be an own goal to be in the position of having the degree, but not getting the rewards from it. If you've got a clear path and definite use for your MBA, fine. Otherwise, check the numbers for viability. |
