Distance education in India has grown popular over the last decade as it allows students to enhance their skills and leverage their academic experience to find jobs. Many distance learning institutions for MBAs are establishing placement departments to connect enrolled students with job opportunities at reputable companies. Schools organize regional job fairs and online placement activities to give students a chance to interact with employers and showcase their qualifications for positions. Maintaining strong written communication skills is important for distance learners applying for jobs primarily through online channels. An exciting opportunity is available through a partnership between SMU-DE and Edinburgh Napier University where SMU-DE MBA alumni can obtain an additional MBA degree from ENU by completing course modules in Edinburgh or online.
