Hi everyone,
I am considering online MBAs as I couldn't attend face to face lesson due to family commitment. UoL Online Global MBA is one of the program I am looking at.
My background:
-Based in Hong Kong
-10+ year experience in Accounting, 4 years in big4 audit plus 6+ years in asset manager/ investment bank finance reporting
-Hong Kong Certified Public Accountant
-CFA Charter holder
I notice that CFA Charter holder can apply for exempting half of the courses. This is quite attractive as the cost will be reduced to GBP 8,600 and could be finished it in 1 year. Does anyone know another MBA have exemption for CPA and CFA Charter holder?
Th goal is to add a MBA qualification to my CV. The career goal is to be a CFO of a sizable company. So when I apply for more senior position, my CV does not look inferior to our candidates.
Just want to check if I have other alternatives? My budget is limited, around GBP 20,000/USD 25,000
Thank you

Your budget would stretch to programs with meaningful international accreditation, like Illinois and Macquarie. They are better options than London.

Thanks Duncan,
Thanks for suggesting more options. I also search in Linkin and I believe UK universities have a better Alumni Network than US and Australia universities in Hong Kong.
How about University of Birmingham and Durham university? Durham is a bit over my budget, if these 2 do not have much difference, I think I will go for Birmingham.
