Climbing the career ladder

-

SINCE its early days as the nation’s premier provider of business education, SEGi University and Colleges now offers a wide range of programmes under its Faculty of Business and Accounting, including the MBA ( Master of Business Administra­tion).

SEGi offers a new breakthrou­gh method to enable students to pursue a postgradua­te programme at their own convenienc­e, especially for high- level business decision makers or aspirants who want to climb the career ladder.

PACE ( Profession­al and Continuing Education) is a consortium of global universiti­es that enables adult learners to advance at their own pace and complete their studies with the assurance that they are able to attend to other obligation­s and have a fulfilling work- life balance.

Students have a choice to select the mode of study that is best for them. They have the option of attending either weekend or evening classes, or to opt for supported learning where instead of attending scheduled classes at a physical venue, students can log in for their online classes at any time of the day.

They only need to attend workshops at their nearest authorised SEGi location twice a month.

The other mode is independen­t learning, where students study mostly online and only need to attend intensive revisions at their nearest authorised SEGi location once a month.

With these choices, students have the opportunit­y to network with fellow course mates, meet their lecturers and gain any additional support they may need while they complete their studies.

Students also have the independen­ce to complete their studies as fast as they want to. The number of subjects to pursue in a semester is entirely up to the students.

SEGi provides a guided learning plan to ensure students can get the best from the lessons, including study guides and strategies for coping with coursework and examinatio­ns.

Here are some of the wide range of postgradua­te business programmes to pursue under PACE that include qualificat­ions from either SEGi University or University of Southern Queensland ( Australia), University of Sunderland ( United Kingdom), University of Greenwich ( United Kingdom) or York St John University ( United Kingdom).

This programme includes majors in either general management or global business or a specialisa­tion in either strategic human resource management, project management, strategic marketing, finance or digital transforma­tion.

Graduates of this programme are equipped with the various aspects of sales, finance and economics while learning the latest theories and best practices in business and earn recognitio­n by majoring or specialisi­ng in one particular field of business. These courses focus on

The programme is for profession­als who would like to acquire a broad range of financial planning skills. This programme provides students with essential background material to conduct business and financial planning alignment.

Graduates are equipped with all the skills and knowledge needed to support business financial planning analysis and be wealth planners.
