Even though the innate value of traditional MBA (Master in Business Administration) programs have been questioned, it is still considered a great way to gain valuable networking and business skills to compete in the evermore global market. 

If you are willing to invest time and money in your career, what should you look for in a top-notch MBA in Brazil?

 

Two words: Practical and international 

Globalization has intensified greatly from 2020-2022. In-person business trips are no longer sought, and now virtually anyone knows how to work out a video web-meeting. Heck, did you know what “Zoom” was before 2020? I didn't!

Thus, greater globalization calls evermore for professionals who are able to connect with people from other parts of the world. So if you are seeking post-graduate business education, there is no way around it. You need a global and truly international business education.

Classes in English are a must. Also MBAs which offer practical experience with C-level market professionals, and the possibility of networking with people from different parts of the world are the best options for you in 2022. This is because they prepare students with methodologies aligned to world standards, facilitating entry into the global market and career advancement.
