First introduced in the United States in 1908, the MBA is today an indispensable step for business professionals wishing to enhance their careers and move ahead in the international community.

A Masters of Business Administration serves as a career booster in the corporate hierarchy and consequently for salaries –professionals gain an average 30% increase after gaining their degree. In fact, MBA graduates have the greatest chance of obtaining executive positions through skills learned and through a rich alumni network provided by MBA programs. Graduates also benefit from vast international career opportunities; generally mastering English along with two other foreign languages, they also learn the American-style management techniques that are recognized internationally.

But with almost 500 MBA programs in Europe and over 700 in the United States, choosing an MBA program has never been so difficult. With this growing freedom of choice and the increasing quality of global MBA programs, potential MBA candidates must be selective in their choice of a full-time, part-time or executive program. International candidates need to take time to study their multitudinous options and, if possible, meet with representatives from the business schools at the top of their list. Numerous resources are available to individuals who are interested in climbing the international business ladder, and they are not restricted to Top MBA Rankings. Personalized orientation services and MBA guides provide valuable support in MBA candidates’ decision-making process.

The Access MBA Tour offers everything that interested MBA candidates are looking for in their search for an MBA: individual meetings with Admissions Directors from leading business schools, tailor-made orientation sessions, and GMAT and TOEFL test preparation and advice.
